How this score is calculatedRubric 2026.1. Each criterion scores 0–5 from verified attributes, then is weighted. Nothing here is entered by hand.

Year-one total cost40%5.002.00
Annual cost thereafter60%5.003.00
Total100%5.0

Excellent tier. Weights are published on the methodology page; a change to any of them is a rubric version bump, not a silent edit.

The cheapest route in the table by a wide margin: $25 to file, $25 for the first year of registered agent service, and $25 a year after that, plus the state's fee. Nothing else is included — no EIN service, so a non-resident applies to the IRS directly (free, by phone or fax), and it forms Wyoming companies only. It quotes the state fee at $103, the online figure; the state figure here is the Secretary of State's $100.

Who this suits

  • Founders keeping the company past its first year. At $85 a year it is the least expensive here to keep standing, and that figure repeats for as long as the company exists.

  • Founders who want the least cash out of pocket to get started — $150 covers the service, the registered agent and the state's own filing fee for year one.

  • Founders who want the setup cost to end after year one. The formation fee is charged once rather than renewed annually.

A one-time formation fee with the registered agent free for the first year, which makes it the cheapest route here on both horizons. The Deluxe tier is priced rather than Basic because Basic omits the EIN, and a non-resident founder cannot open anything without one.
