Additionally, there is a License Tax fee based on a calculation using the entity’s total assets.

Annual Report Due Date

The deadline for the Annual Report is the first day of the anniversary month the entity was formed. For example, if the initial filing date of your Wyoming LLC or Corporation was June 1, 2021, the first Annual Report will be due June 1st, 2022.

The Secretary of State’s office emails three reminders in advance of the Annual Report due date. Even though a reminder is sent, it’s important to make an additional reminder for yourself should you not receive it.

    1. Hi Mark – To keeps the owners of an LLC anonymous when filing the annual report in Wyoming, have the registered agent file the report on your behalf. This way the names of the owners off of public record.

      Thanks!
      Greg
