How Wyoming companies register with Delaware
Order the Wyoming certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing (free) is ordered from Wyoming separately; it is not part of our Delaware order. Ordered from Wyoming on filing day, it easily meets Delaware's limit of 180 days.
We prepare and file the registration
It names us as your Delaware registered agent, with your Wyoming name and formation date and the certificate attached. Wyoming issues the certificate instantly, so the Delaware filing can go in the same day. After approval, your Wyoming LLC is registered with Delaware.

Questions Wyoming owners ask about Delaware
Does my Wyoming company need to register in Delaware?
Yes, once a Wyoming business operates there; Delaware registers it as a foreign LLC.
How much does the Delaware registration cost?
$399 at checkout, plus Wyoming's Certificate of Good Standing, which is free.
Do I need Wyoming's certificate of good standing?
Yes: Delaware wants it (free), no more than 180 days old at filing.
What are the yearly costs for Wyoming and Delaware?
$510.44 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $61.44 to Wyoming and $300 to Delaware for the yearly reports.
What if I don't register with Delaware?
A Wyoming company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Delaware can add up to $200 for each year or part of a year.
Does Delaware require a registered agent?
Yes: the Wyoming registered agent stays, and ours covers Delaware for year one, with a street address there.
Can I form a new Delaware LLC instead?
Yes, but Wyoming keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Delaware's Annual LLC Tax ($400), and the original keeps Wyoming's Annual Report.
How do I withdraw from Delaware later?
Wyoming companies leave by filing a Certificate of Cancellation of Registration of a Foreign Limited Liability Company; until then, Delaware's report stays due alongside Wyoming's filings.
