How to Find Business Records in Wyoming
Searching for Business Records in Wyoming
In the State of Wyoming, the database of Wyoming business entities is
maintained by the Wyoming Secretary of State. Much of this information
is available online. Here are a few tips for accessing this information.
What Records Are Maintained by the Wyoming Secretary of State?
In the State of Wyoming, when a corporation or similar business entity
incorporates, the formation must be documented by filing a record with
the Wyoming Secretary of State. The business entity must also file
periodic updates and notifications of changes. These documents are all
maintained by the Secretary of State as matters of public record.
It should be noted that not all businesses located in the State of
Wyoming have incorporated in Wyoming. Some businesses do not incorporate
or form a business entity requiring a filing with the Secretary of
State. Additionally, not all businesses incorporated in the state in
which they are situated. Instead, some businesses elect to incorporate
in a state other than their home state in order to take advantage of the
laws of that state. The Wyoming Secretary of State will have records for
businesses that have incorporated in the State of Wyoming. The Wyoming
Secretary of State might also have records of businesses incorporated in
a different state, if that business has had cause to file registration
in the State of Wyoming.
How Can I Search for Records Maintained by the Wyoming Secretary of
State?
To search for business entity information in the State of Wyoming, visit
the website for the Wyoming Secretary of State, found at
http://soswy.state.wy.us/ . Then
select the option marked �Corporations� at the top of the page under the
heading. Scroll down the page to select the option �Database� in blue.
This will take you to a page entitled �Public Access to Corporations.
Enter the name or the first part of the name of the business entity for
which you wish to search, then click the button marked �Search.�
The search results will be returned in the form of a list, which will
include the identification number of the business entity, the name,
type, and state. Clicking on the business entity ID number will take you
to a page dedicated to that business entity. This page will include
additional information, including any DBA (another name under which the
business entity does business), date of initial filing, status,
standing, defunct cause if any, defunct date if any, and mailing
address. The page will also provide information about the business
entity�s registered agent, including the name, address and county of the
registered agent. If the name and address have changed, that information
will also be included. There may be information about officers of the
business entity, including the president, vice president, secretary,
treasurer and director. Finally, any additional information pertaining
to reinstatements, renewals, assignments, amendments, mergers, purpose,
common par value, number of common shares, whether the business entity
is for profit or nonprofit and additional information will be included
when available.
Although this information is substantial, it is not yet possible to view
images of the actual filed documents over the internet. To view the
files it will be necessary to visit or otherwise contact the Wyoming
Secretary of State�s office, located in the Capitol Building, Room 110,
200 West 24th Street, Cheyenne,Wyoming 82002-0020.
Finally, if you choose, you may download the entire Corporations
database from the Wyoming Secretary of State website onto your computer
system in order to access the information without first accessing the
Secretary of State�s website for each use. A link to this information
may be found on the Corporations search page titled �Public Access to
Corporations.� The link appears as the words �Click Here� in blue
beneath the corporations search window. Clicking on this link will
permit you to download the database in an XBase format file, in zipped
form.
