Wyoming Secretary of State

Commercial Registered Agents

During the 2008 Budget Session of the Wyoming State Legislature, legislation was passed that provided regulation of the registered agent industry. This legislation created the Registered Agent and Registered Office Act, effective beginning January 1, 2009.

This new legislation provides that an individual registered agent will become "Commercial Registered Agents" when they represent more than 10 business entities.

Once a registered agent hits that magic threshold of 11 entities, the registered agent must register with the Compliance Division as a Commercial Registered Agent by submitting a Commercial Registered Agent Registration Form which is found on our website.

A Commercial Registered Agent's registration is valid until December 31st of each year and must be filed annually. If the registration is allowed to expire, every entity that a Commercial Registered Agent represents will no longer have a registered agent and will be subject to administrative dissolution by our office.

This new legislation also gives the Secretary of State's Office enforcement authority to investigate violations of the Registered Agent and Registered Office Act and to file administrative actions and refer criminal matters to local, state or federal authorities.

Until January 1, 2009, Commercial Registered Agents still reside within the Business Division of this Office. The Registered Agent list can be found here.
