Corporate tax in Wyoming
No state income tax. Wyoming has no individual or corporate income tax. Federal rules still apply and depend on the owners.
Rates are the headline figures published by the tax authority; your effective rate depends on residence, activity and treaties. This is not tax advice.
Common mistakes
- Assuming “no state income tax” means no tax at all — federal filing duties still apply, including Form 5472 for foreign-owned single-member LLCs.
- Letting the registered agent lapse: the state can dissolve the LLC.
- Forgetting the annual report: unpaid 60 days after the due date, the company is subject to dissolution.
