The Wisconsin rule
Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address. A Wisconsin resident, or a business entity formed in Wisconsin or authorized there, whose business office is the registered office. The agent needs an email address and has to consent. The address has to be an actual physical location with a street address in Wisconsin, not solely a P.O. box, mailbox service or answering service. Changing agents costs $10. Source: Wis. Stat. § 183.0115, checked October 20, 2026.
