Utah registered agent requirements, quoted from the source (Utah Secretary of State)
Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.
A commercial registered agent listed with the state, a noncommercial agent (an individual or entity), or the holder of a named position in the company. Look up Utah Code § 16-17-203.
The address has to be an actual street address or rural route box number in Utah. A P.O. box can follow the street address but cannot replace it.
