Things To Consider When Choosing To Start a Wyoming LLC
Before making the decision to start a Wyoming LLC, consider some of the benefits and compare to other forms of business entities. Wyoming legislature and the Internal Revenue Service allow the creation of three business forms similar to each other in relation to advantages in taxation. Similar to a sole proprietorship and partnership, a limited liability company (LLC), limited partnership (LP), and limited liability partnership (LLLP) have characteristics closely related to each other.
Wyoming Limited Liability Company
A Wyoming LLC is intended to combine some of the advantages of a corporation with the tax treatment of a partnership. An LLC is owned by its members who can manage the company or elect a manager(s). One of the most notable benefits of a WY LLC is the limited liability of members for the obligations of the LLC. A Wyoming LLC has limited free transferability of its ownership interests. A Wyoming LLC typically does not dissolve after the death, retirement, or bankruptcy of any member. It is possible for a LLC to elect tax treatment similar to an S corporation by completing a Form 2553 from the IRS.
General Characteristics of a WY LLC
- Formation through agreement of its owners while following Wyoming's limited liability company statute.
- Duration can be perpetual or a defined time.
- Can be managed by members or an elected manager.
- Owner liability limited to capital contribution and member-managed torts.
- Limited owners interest transferability.
- Federal taxes imposed on members.

Things To Consider
Company Name
Before you file a Wyoming LLC it is important to ensure there are no similar names and that your business's name is distinguishable from other companies. Uniqueness is important. Especially in the event of mistaken identity.

Registered Agent
You can choose to be your own registered agent or hire a professional such as our company. The registered agent must be 18 years or older and physically available and present in the State of Wyoming.
Filing
It is very important that all information provided to organize your LLC is accurate and up to date. Wyoming does not require you or your company to disclose its members or managers to the state, however, your registered agent is required to keep up to date information in the event of service of process.
Operating Agreement
We provide you with a very basic operating agreement to get you started. This operating agreement may not be unique to your situation and can be discarded, edited, or used as is. An operating agreement is important because it shows how your company is managed, rights of its members and determines the actions a manager can take in certain situations.
Company Tax Number (EIN)
An EIN is short for Employer Identification Number. It is also referred to as a FEIN Federal Employee Identification Number. This number helps the IRS identify your company. This number can be used during tax filing and is required if your company decides to open a bank account.
Wyoming LLC Bank Account
An LLC bank account can help separate an owners assets from the company's. Many banks require someone to be physically present in Wyoming in order to open an account. There are some online banks that do not have this requirement. So it would be a good idea to look around for a bank that can align with your company's needs.
Local Laws
Wyoming does not require a business license to conduct business within the state, however, some local jurisdictions require permits for special operations in certain industries. With our services your company will be located in Sheridan, Wyoming.

EIN For Non-Resident Foreigners
An EIN, also known as Employer Identification number or FEIN, is one of the important components when opening a bank account. Many banks will ask for this number and several other documents. It is quicker and easier for a foreigner to get this number if an ITIN (Individual Tax Identification Number) is already acquired.
An EIN for non-resident foreigners is not available online and must be done through mail or fax. This adds some time to the acquisition of an EIN and can take up to two months. This is something you can do yourself or hire a professional like ourselves. An option for EIN is available at checkout.
