Wyoming Registered Agent — Set‑Up Guide (Step‑by‑Step)
Wyoming Registered Agent — Set-Up Guide
Appoint a compliant Registered Agent (RA) for your WY holding company, capture written consent, and keep evidence tidy in your Owner’s Binder.
No legal/tax advice. We coordinate with your attorney/CPA as needed.
What “good” looks like
- RA has a Wyoming street address (no PO boxes) and is available during business hours.
- Written Consent to Appointment is signed and saved to your Owner’s Binder.
- Your Articles list the RA’s name and address exactly as provided.
Step-by-step
