Using a Virtual Address for an LLC in Montana
A virtual mailbox or commercial mail receiving agency (CMRA) address may generally be used as an LLC's principal or business address in Montana, though this should be verified against the current filing requirements on Montana's official Secretary of State website. State rules on business addresses can vary and change, so confirming the specific terms before filing is essential.
A CMRA address cannot be used for the registered agent position. Montana requires a registered agent to maintain a staffed street address located within the state where legal documents can be hand-delivered during business hours. This is a uniform requirement across most jurisdictions. Anyone establishing an LLC in Montana should verify all address requirements directly with the state's official filing guidance before submission.

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.
