How Idaho companies register with Wyoming

Order the Idaho certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($10) is ordered from Idaho separately; it is not part of our Wyoming order. Wyoming counts 60 days from the day Idaho issues it, so the order goes in shortly before filing.
We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Wyoming registered agent, with your Idaho name and formation date and the certificate attached. Once Idaho's certificate is in hand, Wyoming's filing goes in. Once Wyoming approves it, the Idaho company can do business there.

Does Wyoming require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Wyoming LLC instead?

How do I withdraw from Wyoming later?

Idaho companies leave by filing a Foreign Limited Liability Company Application for Certificate of Withdrawal; until then, Wyoming's report stays due alongside Idaho's filings.
