    • Printed name and title must be included
  • Registered Agent Consent:
    • Either on the same form or as a separate signed consent form from the new agent

🛡️ How Does Wyoming Verify the Change?

Wyoming verifies authenticity using the following:

✅ Signature Requirement

  • The form must be signed by someone listed on the LLC’s formation or annual report as an authorized person (member/manager).
  • Wyoming does not require notarization, but will reject filings if the signer is not clearly authorized.

✅ Agent Consent

  • The new agent must sign a consent statement confirming they accept the role.
  • This helps prevent unauthorized agent changes.

✅ Paper Filing Only

  • All documents must be mailed, which adds a physical layer of fraud prevention.

✅ Fee

  • $5 filing fee (payable to “Wyoming Secretary of State”)
