Companies conducting business in Wyoming are required to file an annual report each year. Because it is so easy to register as an LLC in Wyoming, and there are many tax benefits to doing so, Wyoming has a higher number of LLCs than other states. The information contained in annual reports allows them to keep track of the companies registered in their state, ensuring that they are still active.
Annual reports list the names and addresses of all officers associated with the business. Because a company files these reports annually, they are required to report any changes to their corporate structure. A company’s corporate structure is a matter of public record, which is why Wyoming considers annual reports to be compliance documents.
Wyoming requires companies to submit annual reports by the first day of their anniversary month. When a company is founded in Wyoming, there is no reporting requirement. So, for all companies, the first report is due one year after founders have started their business in Wyoming. Not filing on time could have serious consequences; Wyoming will dissolve your company 60 days after you have missed your filing deadline. There are many fees associated with doing so, which is why it is important for your business to submit your annual report on time.

Wyoming Annual Registration Instructions & Filing Fees
Wyoming is unique in that filing fees are based on the assets that a particular company has located in the state. The state charges $.0002 per dollar of business assets or $50, whichever is greater. Although this fee structure is unique, many companies do not exceed the $50 minimum because they do not have business assets greater than $250,000. This payment structure applies to all Wyoming corporations, limited liability companies, and limited partnerships.
Nonprofits based in Wyoming pay a more standard $25 fee to file their annual report. If a company chooses to file the annual online, no matter their structure, they are also subject to a $2 credit card convenience fee.
