Wyoming Bank Account

There are arguments on either side if you should open a business bank account for your Wyoming LLC or Wyoming Corporation in the state of Wyoming. When you open a Wyoming bank account for your WY company, you must list the monies located at the bank on your annual report. This could increase the fee you pay the Wyoming Secretary of State. When you open a bank account outside of Wyoming, you break up your Wyoming business nexus. Whatever you decide is best for your corporate situation, you have a few options.

Option 1. You can find a bank that will open an account online like Bank of America or Wells Fargo. They sometimes give you an option of opening a “Wyoming” bank account.

Option 2. Some banks allow you to open a Wyoming business bank account if they have a local branch near you. Have the Wyoming branch send your local branch the paperwork to sign for a Wyoming bank account.

Option 3. A third option is using an online brokerage account like ameritrade or etrade.

Option 4. Go with an independent online bank. It is not clear if you can open a Wyoming account, but an online account is certainly obtainable. https://www.smallbusinessbank.com/
