Updated August 10, 2026. Quick answer. Forming an LLC in Wyoming costs $100 to file, and an ongoing report requirement ($60 minimum, or $0.0002 per dollar of assets located and employed in Wyoming, whichever is greater). Five-year total: $400 over five years, every component verified.
What it actually costs
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Formation filing fee | $100 |
| Annual/biennial report | $60 minimum, or $0.0002 per dollar of assets located and employed in Wyoming, whichever is greater |
| Franchise / minimum tax | none separate from the annual report license tax |
| Publication requirement | No newspaper publication requirement was found. |
Five-year cost of ownership: $400 over five years, every component verified. Publication cost is excluded from this figure — it’s county-driven where it applies, not state-driven, so a single number would be wrong for most filers.
Expedited filing: $1,400 same business day; $700 next business day
The trap worth knowing before you file
All three figures come from the Secretary of State’s own PDFs, downloaded with curl and read with pypdf: LLC-ArticlesOrganization.pdf (formation fee, annual report due date), General/ARWorksheet.pdf (license-tax formula and the $60 floor, plus the license tax rules), General/ExpeditedFilingsCoverSheet.pdf (expedite tiers). ACCESS: sos.wyo.gov/Business/Filing.aspx, /Business/LimitedLiabilityCompany.aspx and /Business/AnnualReport.aspx all 404; the forms index at /Forms/Default.aspx?root=Business renders its links through JavaScript, so the PDF paths were extracted from the raw HTML. https://sos
