What it proves, and who will ask for it

A certificate of good standing is a one-page statement from the Wyoming Secretary of State, Business Division that your LLC exists on the state’s records and is current on what the state requires of it. In Wyoming the official name is Certificate of Good Standing. It does not say anything about taxes owed elsewhere, licences or lawsuits; it says the entity is in good standing with the filing office on the date printed.

Four people ask for it: the bank opening the business account, a lender underwriting a loan, another state’s filing office when you register the LLC there as a foreign entity, and a buyer or investor doing diligence. All of them want a recent one, because the certificate is a snapshot and a company’s status can change the day after it is printed.

How to order it in Wyoming

  1. Find the LLC on the state record

    Open the official page and look the company up by name or file number. Check the status shown on the record: the certificate reports what the record says, so fix anything shown as delinquent before you order.

  2. Order and pay online
