From Indiana to Wyoming, step by step

We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Wyoming registered agent, with your Indiana name and formation date. If Wyoming wants the Indiana certificate, it is ordered first. After approval, your Indiana corporation is registered with Wyoming.

Will your Indiana name work for Wyoming?

We check your exact Indiana name against Wyoming's records before filing.

Agents: Wyoming and Indiana

Indiana and Wyoming both call it a registered agent. Wyoming papers come to us; Indiana's agent is unchanged.

Yearly filings: Wyoming and Indiana

Indiana wants the Business Entity Report every two years ($32); Wyoming wants the Annual Report every year ($60). The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Indiana to Wyoming

An LLC formed in Indiana files its own registration with Wyoming ($150 in state fees, the same, plus the Certificate of Existence ($15)). After that come Indiana's Business Entity Report ($32) and Wyoming's Annual Report ($60). See the LLC filing.

Common questions: Indiana to Wyoming

Does my Indiana company need to register in Wyoming?

Yes, once an Indiana business operates there; Wyoming registers it as a foreign corporation.

Is this a certificate of authority?

Yes: Wyoming issues one to Indiana corporations once the filing is approved.

How much does it cost to register an Indiana corporation in Wyoming?

$349 at checkout; Wyoming may also want Indiana's Certificate of Existence, at extra cost.

How long does the Wyoming registration take?

Wyoming's standard processing takes up to fifteen business days after the date of receipt, plus time for Indiana's certificate if Wyoming asks for it.

What are the yearly costs for Indiana and Wyoming?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Indiana's report ($32, every two years) and Wyoming's report ($60).

Does Wyoming require a registered agent?

Yes: the Indiana registered agent stays, and ours covers Wyoming for year one.

Can I form a new Wyoming corporation instead?

Yes, but Indiana keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Wyoming's Annual Report ($60), and the original keeps Indiana's Business Entity Report.

How do I withdraw from Wyoming later?

Indiana companies leave by filing a Foreign Profit Corporation Application for Certificate of Withdrawal; until then, Wyoming's report stays due alongside Indiana's filings.
