Using a Virtual Address for an LLC in Arizona
Arizona generally permits commercial mail-receiving agencies (CMRAs) or private mailbox addresses to serve as an LLC's principal business address or mailing address. However, this allowance can depend on specific requirements outlined in Arizona's LLC formation rules, so verification directly on the Arizona Corporation Commission's official filing guidance is strongly recommended before relying on a CMRA address for registration purposes.
A CMRA or PMB address cannot be used for an LLC's registered agent in Arizona. Registered agents must maintain a staffed, physical street address within Arizona where legal documents and process of law can be hand-delivered during business hours. This is a uniform requirement across jurisdictions and exists to ensure reliable service of process. Anyone establishing an Arizona LLC should confirm current rules with the state's official resources and consider consulting relevant guidance before finalizing any address-related decisions.

Compiled from the USPS federal baseline (DMM 508 / 39 CFR) and the state notary/RON statute, and verified June 2026. Always confirm the current rule on the official state Secretary of State / notary page before you rely on it — RON law is still moving. This state's RON status is currently medium-confidence (the exact statute section is not yet pinned), so treat the online-notarization detail as a starting point and confirm it on the official page.
