How Wyoming companies register with Arizona

Order the Wyoming certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing (free) is ordered from Wyoming separately; it is not part of our Arizona order. Ordered from Wyoming on filing day, it easily meets Arizona's limit of 60 days.
We prepare and file Form L025
It names us as your Arizona statutory agent, with your Wyoming name and formation date and the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Wyoming delays the Arizona filing. After approval, your Wyoming LLC is registered with Arizona.

Your Wyoming name and Arizona's rules

If Arizona's records show it taken, you can use an alternate name for the Wyoming company. We search Arizona's records for Wyoming's name on file before anything is filed.

Your Arizona agent and the Wyoming one

Arizona calls it a statutory agent; Wyoming says registered agent. Your current registered agent stays for Wyoming; ours takes Arizona's papers and notices.

Yearly filings: Arizona and Wyoming

Wyoming wants the Annual Report every year ($61.44); Arizona has no annual report for LLCs. Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Wyoming to Arizona

A corporation formed in Wyoming files Form C018 with Arizona ($178.85 in state fees and the $35 required expedite). After that come Wyoming's Annual Report ($60) and Arizona's Annual Report and Certificate of Disclosure ($45). See the corporation filing.

The other way: Arizona into Wyoming

An LLC formed in Arizona that registers with Wyoming files Wyoming's registration (no form number) with $150 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Good Standing ($10) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Wyoming owners ask about Arizona

Does my Wyoming company need to register in Arizona?

Do I need Wyoming's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Arizona wants it (free), no more than 60 days old at filing.

How long does the Arizona registration take?

Typically 5 business days with Arizona's required expedite; Wyoming's certificate is an instant download, so there is no wait before filing.

Our statutory agent renewal ($149 a year), Wyoming's report ($61.44) and no Arizona yearly report.

What if I don't register with Arizona?

A Wyoming company cannot sue in court there until it registers.

Does Arizona require a registered agent?

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

Will Arizona accept my Wyoming name?

Yes, if no company there has it; if one does, it uses an alternate name there and keeps its Wyoming name at home.

Can I form a new Arizona LLC instead?

Yes, but Wyoming keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one has no Arizona yearly report, and the original keeps Wyoming's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Arizona later?

Wyoming companies leave by filing Form L026 ($10); until then, both the Arizona registration and Wyoming's filings stay in place.
