Wyoming Registered Agent

A Wyoming registered agent is a resident or company that maintains a physical office in the state boundary lines of Wyoming. Your registered agent must be available M-F during business hours where you or someone trying to notify you could walk into the registered office and hand deliver a document or legal notification. Agents are required to accept legal documents on behalf of clients. When someone delivers a document to your Wyoming registered agent, it’s legal proof that you have been notified about this document. Even if your registered agent fails to get this document to you, you have been legally notified. It’s important to have a Wyoming registered agent that is reliable, has the proper staffing, the longevity and stability to properly handle these notices for you.

Wyoming Registered Agent Duties

Essentially, a Wyoming registered agent is a business’s point of contact. Should your business be sued, the registered agent is responsible for accepting notice of the lawsuit and forwarding it to the person in charge of your business. A registered agent ensures that a business can be reliably contacted about important matters. That way, business owners can’t hide from important notices, and no one can sue a business without the business knowing about it.

Wyoming Registered Agent Requirements

By the letter of the law (W.S. 17-28-107), Wyoming registered agents must do the following:

• Accept service of process (SOP) and official notices from the state on behalf of the businesses they have been hired to and consented to represent.
• Notify the company’s assigned contact (usually a member, manager, officer, or director) when they accept any service of process or mail on behalf of the company, and then forward that notice, either digitally or physically through the mail.
• Keep normal business hours at a physical location (registered office) in Wyoming where they can accept SOPs and legal notices.
• Maintain and keep at their registered office: the names and addresses of each company’s directors, officers, managers or similar persons; the name and address of a company contact authorized to talk with registered agent; copies of written agreements that create the relationship between a real, live person and the registered agent. That’s a lot of potentially sensitive information being held by your Wyoming registered agent! Our company was created on the belief that the #1 thing we should be is reliable. We do all we can to keep your personal information private. And if we receive a document for your company, you can bet you’ll know about it in minutes.

How to Change Registered Agents in Wyoming

Switching registered agents in Wyoming is a quick and easy process. Simply follow the steps below:

1. Hire a New Registered Agent
   Choose your new registered agent first, as the form you will file with the Wyoming Secretary of State will require your new agent’s info on the change of agent form. If you switch to us, this is your final step, as we’ll file all the necessary forms for you free of charge.
2. Have the New Registered Agent Complete to the Consent to Appointment form
   Wyoming registered agents must complete a consent to appointment form. The consent form must be submitted with the change form.
3. Submit the Statement of Change by Business Entity form
   You can download the Statement of Change form from the Wyoming Secretary of State’s website. Simply list your business name, old registered agent info, new registered agent info, and whether you want the new registered agent’s address to serve as your business’ addresses. The change of agent is typically processed in 5 to 15 business days.
4. Cancel Service with Old Registered Agent
   Be sure to cancel service with the previous registered agent, as you don’t want to pay two bills. Also, some registered agents may require proof of the change of agent prior to canceling service.

Why Businesses Are Required to Appoint a Registered Agent

All Wyoming businesses registered with the secretary of state (corporations, LLCs, etc.) are required by law to have a registered agent in Wyoming. But why? Basically, once you form a business entity like a Wyoming LLC or corporation, you’ve created a thing separate from yourself that has many of the same rights an individual has, but with none of the abilities to communicate like a person does. A Wyoming registered agent receives official communications and legal documents like service of process (notice of a lawsuit) on behalf of a business. Having a registered agent ensures that the business is able to be contacted and receive communication when the need arises.
