Wyoming LLC Formation
A Wyoming LLC is perhaps the best option for any small business owner because Wyoming’s business laws are some of the most favorable in the country.

- When Best Wyoming Registered Agent registers your Wyoming LLC, our name is listed as the registered agent, as well as the person submitting the filing. Your personal information does not have to be listed on public record.
Wyoming Incorporation
The difference between a Wyoming corporation and a corporation formed in any other state is that…Wyoming state statutes protect and favor shareholders (owners of the corporation), more than most states.
- Wyoming corporation officers do not have to be listed on public record until the first annual report is filed.
Non-US Resident Business Formation
If neither you nor your business are physically doing business in the US, Wyoming is one of the top recommended states to register your international company. With fast and simple filings, moderate filing fees, no state income or corporate taxes, it’s no wonder Wyoming is so popular with international entreprenuers.
- You do not nee to be a Wyoming resident, or even a US resident/citizen to start a Wyoming business.
Wyoming Partnerships
Long before LLCs were a recognized business entity, Wyoming was offering state incorporation for partnerships.
- Wyoming Secretary of State offers three different options to incorporate a partnership based on your needs: Limited Partnership (LP), Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), and Limited Liability Limited Partnership (LLLP)
- Partnerships generally require paper filings and a more in depth details on the partnerships. While we are not yer offering partnership incorporation services, we do offer guides to starting your own Wyoming partnership and can provide registered agent and business address services.
Wyoming Nonprofit Incorporation
A Wyoming nonprofit corporation isn’t quite as complicated as other states, and even better, there is no state tax-exempt application, or charity registration, since Wyoming doesn’t have corporate tax.
- Incorporating a Wyoming nonprofit is done through a filing similar to a for-profit corporation, except a nonprofit is organized exclusively for charitable, religious, educational, and/or scientific purposes.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| State Filing Fee | $100 | $100 | $50 | $100 | $100 | $100 |
Tax-Efficient Solutions
With no personal or corporate income tax, Wyoming is the least taxed state in the nation. Wyoming state sales tax is 5% with varying, but fairly low, local sales taxes. The average sales tax in Wyoming is 5.42%, which is low in comparison to most of the country, but doesn’t come into play for many Wyoming LLCs like holding companies and trusts that don’t typically have taxable product and service sales.
Property taxes in Wyoming are set by local government entities including cities, counties, and school districts, based on the location of the property and paid to the county treasurer. Wyoming businesses without taxable real or personal property in Wyoming will not need to pay Wyoming property taxes.
