Iowa Business Address

When you form a new Iowa business, you must list a physical business address on your formation paperwork. Once you’ve registered your LLC or corporation with the state, your company’s information (including the address) will be made public. Unfortunately, for some entrepreneurs, your Iowa business address may also be your home address—definitely not ideal for safeguarding your privacy.

At Iowa Registered Agent, we offer a full range of business address services to help protect your personal information, promote stability, and convey trust. From a free Iowa business address you can list on state filings (included with our registered agent service) to a complete Virtual Office setup, we’ve got you covered.

How can we offer such comprehensive business address services? It’s simple. We own our Iowa building.

Iowa Business Address FAQs

What’s the difference between a registered agent address and a business address?

The difference between a registered agent address and a business address is how you can utilize each address. Your Iowa registered agent address is a physical address where your agent can accept service of process on behalf of your LLC or corporation. It’s also the address where the Secretary of State will likely send notices, such as reminders to file your biennial report.

When you hire us for Iowa registered agent service, you’ll get free use of our business address on state filings–but that’s it. You can’t use our address on company letterhead, tax documents, or social media. Why? Because our registered agent address is not unique to your company.

With any of our paid mail forwarding or virtual office services, you’ll get a professional Iowa business address and unique suite number that you can list on bank statements, supply orders, and license/permits—pretty much anything you want.

Can I use my home address as my Iowa business address?

Legally, you can use your home address as your Iowa business address. You may also choose to act as your own registered agent. However, there are a few risks you’ll want to consider:

• Your home address will be public. When you file business formation papers, that information (including your address) is findable through the Iowa Secretary of State website.
• Your ability to travel will become harder. Per IA Code § 489.115 (2024), your registered agent must be available during regular business hours to accept service of process. Acting as your own registered agent will make traveling much harder.
• You may be overwhelmed with junk mail. Once your home address becomes public, anyone, including scammers, can find your information.

When you hire us, we’ll list our business address (instead of yours) on all state forms. We’ll also handle the responsibility of accepting service of process, freeing you up for whatever life brings.

How do I change my Iowa business address?

To update your registered agent address, you must file a Statement of Change of Registered Office And/Or Registered Agent with the Secretary of State. There is no filing fee.

To update your business address, you can file your biennial report ($30 online) or a Certificate of Amendment ($50) if you’ve already filed your report.  

Can I use my Iowa business address for my Amazon business?

You may use our Iowa business address for verification purposes. However, you should not list our address for product returns, as we are only set up to scan documents and do not accept packages.
