The tasks

  1. Task 1

    See if your LLC must register in Wyoming

    If your LLC came from elsewhere and operates in Wyoming, foreign registration is how it gets permission.

    Source: Official page wyoleg.gov, last read October 2026

  2. Task 2

    Collect the document from the home state

    Wyoming asks for original certificate of existence / good standing, issued no more than 60 days.

    Request it close to your filing date.

  3. Task 3

    Choose the Wyoming registered agent

    Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address. The address has to be a physical street address in Wyoming where the agent, or a person authorized by the agent, is present. Drop boxes, virtual addresses and mail-forwarding locations do not qualify; a P.O. box can be added only with a physical address.

    Our recommendations cover this role.

  4. Task 4

    Prepare and sign the Foreign Limited Liability Company Application for Certificate of Authority

    Fill in the Foreign Limited Liability Company Application for Certificate of Authority (FLLC-CertificateAuthority), include $150, and mail or upload it to the Wyoming Secretary of State, Business Division.
