From Wyoming to Florida, step by step

Order the Wyoming certificate
The Certificate of Good Standing (free) is ordered from Wyoming separately; it is not part of our Florida order. Ordered from Wyoming on filing day, it easily meets Florida's limit of 90 days.
We prepare and file Form CR2E027
It names us as your Florida registered agent, with your Wyoming name and formation date and the certificate attached. With the certificate issued on the spot, nothing from Wyoming delays the Florida filing. After approval, your Wyoming LLC is registered with Florida.

Your Wyoming name and Florida's rules

Florida accepts your Wyoming name if it includes Limited Liability Company, L.L.C. or LLC. If the Wyoming name already ends in LLC, it meets the rule. If another Florida company uses the Wyoming name, an alternate name is allowed. Florida can hold a name for $25 before you file.

Agents: Florida and Wyoming

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

Yearly filings: Florida and Wyoming

Each year your LLC files Wyoming's Annual Report ($61.44) and Florida's Annual Report ($138.75). With our $149 registered agent renewal, Wyoming plus Florida comes to $349.19 a year. Both states' filings stay current side by side.

LLC or corporation, Wyoming to Florida

The other way: Florida into Wyoming

An LLC formed in Florida that registers with Wyoming files Wyoming's registration (no form number) with $150 in state fees, plus the Certificate of Status ($5) dated within 60 days. See that filing.

Questions Wyoming owners ask about Florida

Does my Wyoming company need to register in Florida?

Yes, once a Wyoming business operates there; Florida law lists 13 activities that do not count on their own.

How much does it cost to register a Wyoming LLC in Florida?

$324 at checkout, plus Wyoming's Certificate of Good Standing, which is free.

Do I need Wyoming's certificate of good standing?

Yes: Florida wants it (free), no more than 90 days old at filing.

What are the yearly costs for Wyoming and Florida?

$349.19 a year: our $149 registered agent renewal, $61.44 to Wyoming and $138.75 to Florida for the yearly reports.

What if I don't register with Florida?

A Wyoming company cannot sue in court there until it registers, and Florida can add a civil penalty of up to $1,000 and a fine of at least $500.

Does Florida require a registered agent?

Yes: the Wyoming registered agent stays, and ours covers Florida for year one, with a street address there.

Will Florida 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. Florida names must include Limited Liability Company, L.L.C. or LLC.

Can I form a new Florida LLC instead?

Yes, but Wyoming keeps the original, so you run two companies: the new one files Florida's Annual Report ($138.75), and the original keeps Wyoming's Annual Report.

How do I withdraw from Florida later?

Wyoming companies leave by filing a Notice of Withdrawal of Certificate of Authority ($25); until then, Florida's report stays due alongside Wyoming's filings.
