How the Wyoming agent gets set up

  1. Task 1

    Read what Wyoming requires

    Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.

    Source: wyoleg.gov (page read October 2026)

  2. Task 2

    Check who is eligible

    A Wyoming resident 18 or older whose business office is the registered office, a business entity with an agency agreement with an individual who accepts service there, or a commercial registered agent (one acting for more than ten companies). The rule comes from W.S. § 17-28-101.

  3. Task 3

    Use an office address that qualifies

    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.

    Each service we recommend supplies the in-state address.

  4. Task 4

    Choose between acting alone and hiring

    A qualified owner may act as agent. If you would rather not, our recommended agents charge $99 to $149 a year.

  5. Task 5

    Name the agent in your filing

    A new LLC lists its agent on the Limited Liability Company Articles of Organization, sent to the Wyoming Secretary of State. An LLC that swaps agents files an amendment with the same office.

  6. Task 6

    Update when things change

    The annual report costs $60 every year and is due first day of the LLC's anniversary month; any notice about it comes through the registered agent.
