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:

Prefill (mode: "prefill", 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 prefill flows.
Verification (mode: "verification", the default, authoritative). Returns the full register record read live from the entity’s WyoBiz detail page: everything in the prefill 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. Prefill 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 Type	Format	Example	Notes
Filing ID	`YYYY-NNNNNNNNN`	`2004-000464709`	Wyoming 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.

Identifiers in API Response

Identifier	Format	Example	Found In
`filingId`	`YYYY-NNNNNNNNN`	`2004-000464709`	All entities

Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)

GLEIF is the supplementary data source for this identifier. company.identifiers.lei is returned when a company identifier has a unique match against this jurisdiction’s registration or validation references in GLEIF. An LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) has 20 uppercase letters and digits, ending in two check digits. Coverage varies by entity. The field is omitted when no unambiguous match is available. Lapsed or retired LEIs may be returned; annulled records are excluded.

Search Capabilities

Search Type	Pattern	Example	Match Type	Expected Results
By Name	2-200 chars	`"Wyoming Energy Corp"`	Starts with	Multiple results
By Filing ID	`YYYY-NNNNNNNNN`	`2004-000464709`	Exact	Exact match returned first (matchType: id); other results may follow

Name search matches from the beginning of the entity name (starts-with). For broader matches, use shorter prefixes.

Active companies only

Search can return companies that are no longer active. Each result carries the register’s status, so activeOnly=true removes the inactive ones.

Quirks & Gotchas

Quirk	Details
Wyoming is a privacy state	Wyoming does not require LLCs to disclose members or managers in public filings. Only the organizer who filed the articles appears on the entity record.
No shareholder or UBO register	Wyoming does not publish shareholders or beneficial owners for any entity type. The federal CTA/FinCEN is a separate system.
No activity codes	The Wyoming Secretary of State does not collect NAICS or industry classification codes.
Registered agent standing	Wyoming tracks three separate standings: Tax, Registered Agent (RA), and Other. All three must be “Good” for a Certificate of Good Standing to be issued.
Officers require verification mode	Directors, officers, and the registered agent come from the entity’s register detail page. They are returned in verification mode only, not in the prefill summary.
Dual role labels	Corporate officers may hold combined roles (e.g. “President / Director”). These are mapped to the primary role.
Trade names and trademarks	Trade Name and Trademark registrations appear in WyoBiz as entity types but are not legal entities. They are mapped with standardized form `Other`.

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.

Source Value	Active	closureReason
`Active`	`true`	—
`Inactive - Dissolved`	`false`	`ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION`
`Inactive - Administratively Dissolved (Tax)`	`false`	`ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION`
`Inactive - Administratively Dissolved or Revoked (Tax)`	`false`	`ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION`
`Inactive - Administratively Dissolved or Revoked (No Agent)`	`false`	`ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION`
`Inactive - Administratively Dissolved or Revoked (Other)`	`false`	`ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION`
`Inactive - Revoked (Tax)`	`false`	`ADMINISTRATIVE_DISSOLUTION`
`Inactive - Cancelled`	`false`	`OTHER`
`Inactive - Expired`	`false`	`OTHER`
`Inactive - Withdraw/Dissolve/Cancel`	`false`	`OTHER`
`Inactive - Merged`	`false`	`MERGER`
`Inactive - Withdrawal`	`false`	`OTHER`

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 Forms

Legal form is derived from the WyoBiz Filing Details Type field. Wyoming distinguishes between domestic and foreign variants of each entity structure.

Legal Representatives

Wyoming discloses named appointments on the Filing Details page. The full entity type determines the representation context. Corporate officers may execute register filings under Wyoming Statutes 17-16-120(f) and 17-19-120(f); their title does not establish unrestricted commercial authority or a sole signature mode.

Role	Entity context	Standardized
President	Corporation	President
President / Director	Corporation	President
Vice President	Corporation	Vice President
Vice President / Director	Corporation	Vice President
Secretary	Corporation	Secretary
Secretary / Director	Corporation	Secretary
Treasurer	Corporation	Treasurer
Treasurer / Director	Corporation	Treasurer
General Partner	Domestic limited partnership	General Partner
Partner	Domestic registered LLP	Partner
Trustee	Domestic statutory trust, specified certificate execution	Other

Domestic partnership agency is subject to statutory and contractual limits. Trust certificate execution requirements differ by filing; a single signature mode is not inferred. A foreign registration does not establish the foreign formation law or an individual commercial mandate.

Other Key Persons

Role	Standardized	Notes
Director	Board Member	Board office alone does not establish individual representation
Incorporator	Other	Formation appointment; a current preformation signing exception is not established
Organizer	Other	LLC formation filer, without an evidenced current mandate
Manager	Other	LLC management title without a recorded representation grant
Limited Partner	Other	Title alone does not establish general partnership agency
General Partner	Other	Foreign or unqualified entity context
Partner	Other	Foreign or unqualified entity context
Trustee	Other	Foreign or unqualified trust context
President	C-Level Executive	Outside a qualified corporate context
President / Director	C-Level Executive	Outside a qualified corporate context
Vice President	C-Level Executive	Outside a qualified corporate context
Vice President / Director	C-Level Executive	Outside a qualified corporate context
Secretary	Secretary	Outside a qualified corporate context
Secretary / Director	Secretary	Outside a qualified corporate context
Treasurer	Other	Outside a qualified corporate context
Treasurer / Director	Other	Outside a qualified corporate context
Registered Agent	Registered Agent	Service-of-process contact

LLC public detail records typically show formation organizers and may show managers. They do not supply a complete member register. A representative of the registered agent’s organization is not assumed to hold a mandate from the subject company. Unknown appointment titles are retained as other key persons until representation evidence is available. The reference list covers existing and observed titles; WyoBiz does not publish a complete closed party classifier.

Document	Availability	Format
Trade Register Extract	Always available	PDF
Certificate of Good Standing	Conditional — entity must be Active with all standings “Good”	PDF

The Trade Register Extract is included at no extra charge with the company data block; it is a printed PDF of the entity’s register detail page. The Certificate of Good Standing is billed separately (see the pricing page for the price). The Certificate of Good Standing is issued electronically by the Wyoming Secretary of State and confirms the entity is in compliance with all state requirements (tax, registered agent, other); it is available only for entities that are Active with all three standings “Good”.
