How Connecticut companies register with Wyoming

Order the Connecticut certificate
The Certificate of Legal Existence ($50) is ordered from Connecticut separately; it is not part of our Wyoming order. It comes as a short form ($50) or a long form ($100). Wyoming counts 60 days from the day Connecticut issues it, so the order goes in shortly before filing.
We prepare and file the registration
It lists us as your Wyoming registered agent, next to your Connecticut name and formation date, with the certificate attached. Once Connecticut's certificate is in hand, Wyoming's filing goes in. After approval, your Connecticut LLC is registered with Wyoming.
