About Cowboy State Filings
Wyoming LLC formation, done the Wyoming way. We form Wyoming LLCs with statute-citation accuracy, transparent line-item pricing, a 4-5 bank application strategy, and named expert authors on every page.
Who We Are
Cowboy State Filings is a Wyoming LLC formation specialist operating at wyomingllcformation.co. We do one thing: form Wyoming LLCs end-to-end, from Articles of Organization through the Wyoming Secretary of State to EIN acquisition, operating agreement drafting, registered agent service, and bank account applications to 4-5 US banks concurrently.
Every page on this site cites the specific Wyoming statute that governs the topic. Every dollar in our $497 fee is broken out as a line item. Every bank application goes to 4-5 institutions simultaneously, not one. Every article names the expert author who wrote it and lists their credentials. And every client can reach a filing specialist via live chat 24/7.
We are not a registered agent company that bolted on formation. We are not a legal document mill. We are not an offshore anonymity shop. We are a Wyoming LLC formation service staffed by named specialists who cite statutes, disclose pricing, and answer the chat.
Our Approach: Wyoming-Rooted Filing Methodology
Five principles define how Cowboy State Filings operates. These are not marketing slogans. They are operational rules that govern every filing, every page, and every client interaction.
1. Cite the statute, not “the IRS allows”
When we say Wyoming extends charging order protection to single-member LLCs, we cite Wyoming Statute Section 17-29-503(a). When we say Articles of Organization do not list members, we cite the statutory filing requirements. General claims without statutory backing do not appear on this site. If we cannot cite it, we do not claim it.
2. Line-item every dollar
Our pricing page shows exactly where $497 goes: $100 to the Wyoming Secretary of State, $100 for registered agent year one, $297 CSF service fee. Operating agreement, EIN, and bank applications are included at no additional charge. No upsells at checkout. No “premium” or “gold” tiers. One price, fully itemized.
3. Apply to 4-5 banks, not one
A single bank application yields roughly a 60% approval rate. Applying to Mercury, Relay, Bluevine, and 1-2 additional banks concurrently produces an approximately 90% combined approval rate. Most competitors either skip banking entirely or apply to one bank. We apply to 4-5 because an LLC without a bank account is not operationally complete.
4. Name the expert on every page
Every article, guide, and service page on wyomingllcformation.co lists the named author who wrote it, their role, and their area of expertise. Anonymous content farms produce anonymous content. We produce content authored by named specialists who are accountable for accuracy.
5. 24/7 live chat support
Clients can open the live chat from any page and message a filing specialist directly. Not a sales development representative. Not an automated bot. A filing specialist who knows your LLC by name and can answer questions about Wyoming statutes, EIN status, or bank application progress.
What We Believe
No nominee services — an editorial position
Cowboy State Filings does not offer nominee member or nominee manager services. We do not partner with nominee providers. We actively warn against most nominee firms. Nominee arrangements create fiduciary conflicts, complicate banking (banks investigate beneficial ownership regardless of nominee layers), and provide a false sense of privacy that does not survive IRS scrutiny, FinCEN reporting, or litigation discovery. If you need anonymity, Wyoming already provides substantial privacy through its statutory framework without nominees.
Anonymity scope honesty — the 4-layer disclosure
Wyoming offers real privacy advantages: Articles of Organization do not list members or managers, there is no state income tax return, and the annual report requires minimal disclosure. But we are honest about the limits. Four entities will always know your identity: (1) the IRS via your EIN application, (2) your bank via BSA/CIP requirements, (3) your registered agent (us), and (4) FinCEN if foreign reporting company BOI obligations apply. We disclose this upfront rather than selling “total anonymity” that does not exist.
Pricing transparency as competitive moat
Most formation companies advertise “$0 + state fee” then upsell registered agent ($125-$299), operating agreement ($99-$149), EIN ($70-$150), and rush processing ($50-$200) during checkout. Their actual cost after upsells exceeds ours. We publish one price — $497 — that includes everything they charge extra for, plus bank account applications they do not offer at all. Transparent pricing is not a marketing tactic. It is a structural advantage that eliminates the trust gap at checkout.
