Data Sources

All entity data comes from the Wyoming Secretary of State business register, the official WyoBiz filing and search system (wyobiz.wyo.gov) for the ~200,000+ business entities registered in Wyoming. Wyoming supports two modes on a single data block:
  • Onboarding (mode: "onboarding", fast, non-authoritative). Returns a quick summary built from the register’s public search index: legal name, Filing ID, legal form, and status. It does not include addresses, registration date, officers, or the registered agent. Use it for fast identity resolution during onboarding flows.
  • Verification (mode: "verification", the default, authoritative). Returns the full register record read live from the entity’s WyoBiz detail page: everything in the onboarding summary plus the registered/principal-office address, the registration date, directors and officers, and the registered agent. Use it when you need the complete, authoritative profile.
Mode-based routing. Onboarding requests are served fast from the register’s public search index and return a non-authoritative summary. Verification requests read the live register detail page and return the full authoritative record, including address, directors and officers, and the registered agent.

Company Identifiers

Query Identifiers

Identifier TypeFormatExampleNotes
Filing IDYYYY-NNNNNNNNN2004-000464709Wyoming Secretary of State primary identifier (year + 9-digit sequence)
The Filing ID is the only identifier supported for company retrieval. To find a Filing ID from a name, use the search endpoint first.
The YYYY prefix of the Filing ID is the year the entity registered with the Wyoming Secretary of State (the qualification year for foreign entities), not the entity’s incorporation date. It is year-granularity only, so do not treat it as registrationDate. The registration date is returned as a separate field in verification mode.

Mappings

Company Status

Status comes from the WyoBiz entity status field. “Active” is the only in-good-standing state. All other statuses begin with “Inactive -” followed by a specific reason. The response includes statusDetails with structured fields: status, closureReason, closureDate, and additionalInfo.

The Sub Status field (“Current” or “Archived”) from WyoBiz further qualifies inactive entities. “Current” means the entity has a 2-year reinstatement window; “Archived” means it can no longer reinstate. Legal form is derived from the WyoBiz Filing Details Type field. Wyoming distinguishes between domestic and foreign variants of each entity structure.
Wyoming discloses named officers and parties on the Filing Details page. The available roles depend on entity type.
