The Kentucky rule
Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address. A Kentucky resident, or an entity qualified to do business in Kentucky, whose business address is the registered office. The agent signs or files a written acceptance. The address has to be a physical registered office in Kentucky that matches the agent's business address. A P.O. box is not enough. Changing agents costs $10. Source: KRS 14A.4-010, checked October 20, 2026.
