H 738 Idaho House · 68th Legislature, 2nd Regular Session (2026)

LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES – Amends existing law to provide that the organizer of a limited liability company may use the street and mailing addresses of a company’s commercial registered agent in certain circumstances.

This Idaho bill (H 738) allows organizers of new limited liability companies (LLCs) to use their commercial registered agent's street and mailing address as the company's official "principal office" address under specific conditions. It directly affects LLC organizers who lack a separate business location (e.g., operating solely from a home address) and must have their registered agent's consent. The key provision amends Idaho law to add this address option in the LLC's formation documents, replacing the requirement for a physical business location address. The change takes effect July 1, 2026.
