The document

Wyoming Articles of Organization: the formation document

The Wyoming Articles of Organization are the filing that creates your company; the whole of Wyoming LLC formation turns on getting them right, because to file LLC in Wyoming — and to start LLC in Wyoming the right way — is to get this one document accepted. The Wyoming LLC Articles of Organization state the company name, the street address of the initial registered office, and the name of the registered agent at that office, and they must be accompanied by the agent’s written consent to appointment. Your Wyoming LLC filing is prepared from the details you give us and submitted to the state — the Wyoming filing itself is a single, well-defined document, not a stack of paperwork.

Filing with the state

Wyoming Secretary of State LLC formation and filing

Wyoming Secretary of State LLC formation happens one of two ways: online through the state’s WyoBiz system, which approves online filings immediately, or by mail, which the Secretary of State processes in up to 15 business days from receipt. Wyoming does not offer expedited filing, so online is the faster route — and the one your Wyoming Secretary of State LLC filing uses when we submit it. The $100 filing fee is the same either way. That Wyoming Secretary of State LLC registration is how you register Wyoming LLC records with the state, and once the articles are accepted your company officially exists.

Why Wyoming

Limited liability company Wyoming advantages

Founders choose to create an LLC in Wyoming for a short list of durable reasons: limited liability that separates personal assets from the business, privacy — Wyoming does not put members or managers on the public record — and low cost, with a $100 formation fee and a $60 minimum annual report, and no state personal or corporate income tax. Whether you set up LLC in Wyoming to hold assets, start a business in Wyoming online, or register company in Wyoming from outside the United States, the same Wyoming business registration gives you those protections. It is a straightforward Wyoming entity formation with none of the ongoing disclosure other states demand. Under Wyoming LLC law, the same protections apply whether you open LLC Wyoming as a holding vehicle or an operating business; compared with the alternatives, an LLC Wyoming keeps both your costs and your public footprint lower than almost any other state.
