You can meet the demands of Iowa laws which require an agent and a registered office and you can do so without paying too much for quality and dependability. was founded a number of years ago by an experienced corporate lawyer and statutory agent (sometimes called a registered or resident agent). The organization has matured into a network of practicing lawyers in all the continental United States plus Hawaii, Alaska and DC. We provide trustworthy registered agent, statutory agent, and resident agent service everywhere; plus other corporate and legal services, e.g. trademarks and service marks. If you need an agent in Puerto Rico, we'll get to task.

There are some summary facts you should know about a registered agent in Iowa:

"registered agent," "statutory agent" and "resident agent" are three names for the same thing: an agent authorized by a company to receive documents and notices. (Since the three terms all refer to a Resident of the state acting as an AGENT, we have coined the term "ragent" to include them all).

Your Iowa registered agent may be (1) a domestic company formed under Iowa corporate law (2) a foreign corporation authorized to transact business in Iowa or (3) an adult individual who resides in Iowa. We don't recommend an amateur volunteer.

It is critical to note that an Iowa registered agent must have an Iowa street address. A post office box alone will not do.
