Where Wyoming filings get tripped up
These are the things we have actually run into filing in Wyoming, in plain English.
- You agree to receive legal papers by email
- Every Wyoming filing consents to electronic service of process at the company's email address, so the email on your filing has to be one that is actually monitored.
- Your registered agent must consent in writing
- Wyoming requires the filer to certify that the registered agent has signed a consent, even for a commercial agent. We handle this when you use our agent service.
- Singular, plural and the ending do not make a name unique
- Wyoming treats “Ranch” and “Ranches”, or LLC and Limited Liability Company, as the same name. Names are also English letters only, so accents are dropped.
- An annual report is due in your anniversary month
- Wyoming LLCs file an annual report on the first day of the month they were formed in, starting the next year, with a $60 minimum license tax.
What we need from you
Your business name, the address for the company, and the names of the members. That is the whole application, and it takes a few minutes. We prepare and file the Articles of Organization for you, and handle the state's payment.
What you get
Your stamped Certificate of Organization from the state, delivered straight to your account as soon as Wyoming issues it. From there you can add an EIN, an operating agreement, membership certificates, or registered agent service.
