Before you file

Check the current state filing instructions, choose a registered agent that meets the state rules, and budget separately for any annual obligations. If you will operate in another state, you may also need to register there. This guide is a cost starting point, not a filing service.

Budget for the first year and later years

Later years: An LLC annual report is due on the first day of the anniversary month. The license tax is $60 or 0.0002 times assets located and employed in Wyoming, whichever is greater; online processing can add a fee. Official state source
