Registered agent
Oregon requires one. The agent's registered office has to be a real Oregon street address staffed well enough to sign for legal service, a P.O. box will not do, the person or company named must have agreed to the role, and an LLC cannot act as its own registered agent.
What you owe after year one
On the anniversary of the original registration date; the Corporation Division mails a renewal notice roughly 45 days ahead.
Missing it is the most common way a good standing lapses, and restoring one costs more than filing on time.
