Step 1: Choose a name for your Wyoming LLC

Your LLC name must be unique in Wyomingand include "LLC" or "Limited Liability Company." Search the Secretary of State database at Secretary of State website to check availability.

Step 2: Choose a registered agent

Wyoming requires every LLC to have a registered agent with a physical address in the state. A registered agent receives legal and tax documents on behalf of your business. You can serve as your own registered agent if you have a Wyoming address, or use a service like TrueFormed. Our $89 formation bundle includes the first year; renewal is $99/year.

Step 3: File Articles of Organization

File your Articles of Organization with the Wyoming Secretary of State. You can file online at wyobiz.wyo.gov. The filing fee is $100 and processing typically takes 1-2 business days.

Or let TrueFormed handle it — our $89 bundle includes this filing plus EIN, Operating Agreement, and your first year of Registered Agent service. You pay the $100 state fee on top.

Step 4: Get an EIN from the IRS

An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is your business's tax ID. It's free from the IRS and takes about 5 minutes online. You'll need it to open a business bank account, file taxes, and hire employees.

Step 5: Create an Operating Agreement

Wyoming doesn't legally require an operating agreement, but every LLC should have one. It defines ownership percentages, management structure, and what happens if a member leaves. Banks often require it to open a business account.

Step 6: Stay compliant — Wyoming annual requirements

Wyoming requires a n annual report filed with the Secretary of State. Deadline: By first day of anniversary month. The fee is $60.

Miss the deadline and your LLC can be administratively dissolved. If you keep our $99/yr Registered Agent service active we track this deadline automatically; filing the report is a $99 + state-fee add-on when it comes due.
