From Wyoming to Nevada, step by step

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

Will your Wyoming name work for Nevada?

Nevada can hold a name for $25 before you file.

Agents: Nevada and Wyoming

Wyoming and Nevada both call it a registered agent. Your current registered agent stays for Wyoming; ours takes Nevada's papers and notices.

Yearly filings: Nevada and Wyoming

Wyoming wants the Annual Report every year ($60); Nevada wants the Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent every year. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

LLC or corporation, Wyoming to Nevada

An LLC formed in Wyoming files its own registration with Nevada ($425 in state fees, the same; no home-state certificate is needed). After that come Wyoming's Annual Report ($61.44) and Nevada's periodic report ($350). See the LLC filing.

The other way: Nevada into Wyoming

A corporation formed in Nevada that registers with Wyoming files Wyoming's registration (no form number) with $150 in state fees. See that filing.

Common questions: Wyoming to Nevada

Does my Wyoming company need to register in Nevada?

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

Is this a certificate of authority?

Nevada calls it qualification for Wyoming corporations; other states say certificate of authority.

How much does the Nevada registration cost?

$624 at checkout; Nevada may also want Wyoming's Certificate of Good Standing, at extra cost.

How long does the Nevada registration take?

Nevada says most online filings are processed the same day at no extra charge, plus time for Wyoming's certificate if Nevada asks for it. Paid expedite: 2-hour $500, 1-hour $1,000.

What are the yearly costs for Wyoming and Nevada?

Our registered agent renewal ($149 a year), Wyoming's report ($60) and Nevada's report (fee set by the state).

Does Nevada require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Nevada corporation instead?

Yes, but Wyoming keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Nevada's Annual List of Officers, Directors and Registered Agent, and the original keeps Wyoming's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Nevada later?

Wyoming companies leave by filing a Certificate of Dissolution/Withdrawal; until then, Nevada's report stays due alongside Wyoming's filings.
