http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+13.1-757 B. The following activities, among others, do not constitute transacting business within the meaning of subsection A: 5. Selling through independent contractors; 6. Soliciting or obtaining orders, whether by mail or through employees or agents or otherwise, if the orders require acceptance outside this Commonwealth before they become contracts; 9. Owning, without more, real or personal property; C. The list of activities in subsection B is not exhaustive. So, yeah. There are scenarios in which registration is required and there are scenarios in which it's not. Look at the sentences above. That's a challenge for a judge to make an assessment, let alone ARIN.
