Wyoming LLC FinCEN BOI Reporting: Asset Protection & CTA Rules

Wyoming invented the American Limited Liability Company in 1977 and remains the gold standard for asset protection, charging order protections, and low state fees. Many real estate investors and entrepreneurs establish Wyoming LLCs using nominee services to preserve privacy.

1. Wyoming Holding Companies & Subsidiary Rules

Many investors operate a Wyoming holding LLC that owns operating subsidiaries in California, Florida, or Texas. Under FinCEN rules, each entity must file its own independent BOIR unless the subsidiary qualifies under Exemption #22 (Subsidiary of Certain Exempt Entities).

2. Mandatory Information for Wyoming Entities

For every beneficial owner of a Wyoming company, you must submit: full legal name, date of birth, complete current residential street address (no P.O. boxes or registered agent addresses), and a clear color copy of a non-expired passport or driver's license.
