How to check a registered agent in Michigan

The Michigan rule

Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address. A Michigan resident, or a corporation or LLC formed in Michigan or authorized there, whose business office (or, for a person, residence) is the registered office. The address has to be a registered office in Michigan, which does not have to be the place of business. P.O. boxes are not accepted. Changing agents costs $5.
