Wyoming LLC Tax and Annual Report Requirements in 2026 — What You Actually Owe, Every Year
What a Wyoming LLC actually owes each year — the license tax, the Annual Report deadline, dissolution risk, and the official Secretary of State sources that confirm it.
Wyoming's pitch is genuinely simple compared to most of this list: no state corporate income tax, no personal income tax, and a single annual filing that most LLCs can complete for the cost of a modest dinner. The part that trips people up isn't the amount — it's a hard deadline with no grace period once it's blown.
What you don't owe
Wyoming levies no state corporate income tax and no personal income tax. Instead of a franchise tax in the traditional sense, it charges a single annual License Tax on all profit corporations, LLCs, LPs and RLLPs, based on assets located and employed in Wyoming: US$60 minimum, or US$0.0002 per dollar of in-state assets, whichever is greater. The state's own example: US$1,210,000 in Wyoming assets works out to US$242 in tax. For the overwhelming majority of Web3 holding entities with minimal Wyoming-based assets, this lands at the US$60 floor.
What you owe every year, regardless
The Annual Report, filed with the Wyoming Secretary of State's Business Division, due on the first day of the anniversary month of formation — a company formed 15 May files by 1 May every following year. It can be filed up to 120 days early, and the filing fee is simply the license tax calculated above; there's no separate flat fee stacked on top. One quirk worth knowing: if the license tax exceeds US$500, the filing cannot be submitted online and must go in by mail instead.
Federal taxes are separate. This is a state-level filing only — it has no bearing on IRS obligations, which apply regardless of Wyoming's zero state income tax.
What happens if you miss the deadline
Wyoming's enforcement is unusually strict compared to most US states. The entity becomes delinquent on the second day of the month following the due date, and if the Annual Report still isn't filed within 60 days of that due date, the company is administratively dissolved. Wyoming statute doesn't allow reinstatement after 2 years in dissolved status — past that window, the entity is gone for good, not just suspended.
