From Utah to Wyoming, step by step

Order the Utah certificate
The Certificate of Existence ($12) is ordered from Utah separately; it is not part of our Wyoming order. It comes as a short form ($12) or a long form ($20). Ordered from Utah on filing day, it easily meets Wyoming's limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Wyoming registered agent, with your Utah name and formation date and the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Utah delays the Wyoming filing. After approval, your Utah LLC is registered with Wyoming.

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

Yearly filings: Wyoming and Utah

Each year your LLC files Utah's Annual Report/Renewal ($18) and Wyoming's Annual Report ($60). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Utah plus Wyoming comes to $227 a year. The new registration does not replace any home-state filing.

A corporation formed in Utah files its own registration with Wyoming ($150 in state fees, the same). After that come Utah's Annual Report / Annual Renewal ($18) and Wyoming's Annual Report ($60). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Wyoming into Utah

An LLC formed in Wyoming that registers with Utah files Utah's registration (no form number) with $59 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing (free) dated within 90 days. See that filing.

Does my Utah company need to register in Wyoming?

How much does the Wyoming registration cost?

$349 at checkout plus $12 to Utah for the Certificate of Existence, $361 in all (checkout is $150 in state fees plus our $199).

Do I need Utah's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Wyoming wants Utah's Certificate of Existence ($12), no more than 60 days old at filing.

How long does the Wyoming registration take?

Wyoming's standard processing takes up to fifteen business days after the date of receipt; Utah's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing.

$227 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $18 to Utah and $60 to Wyoming for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Wyoming?

Wyoming can charge a Utah company a penalty of $5,000.

Does Wyoming require a registered agent?

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

Can I form a new Wyoming LLC instead?

Yes, but Utah keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Wyoming's Annual Report ($61.44), and the original keeps Utah's Annual Report/Renewal.

How do I withdraw from Wyoming later?

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