Short answer
WYOM is a structured platform for the US company foundation layer. This page defines the service scope plainly so founders understand what WYOM organizes and runs and what remains outside WYOM's role.
Not sure which state? Start with the non-US founder route.
Most founders do not start with a perfect state choice. They start with a practical goal: open a US LLC from abroad, request an EIN without SSN, keep official mail visible, and avoid a confusing upsell path.
Wyoming
Independent non-US founders who want a practical LLC route, EIN workflow, Registered Agent, official mail, and lower state-level maintenance.
Still needs federal tax review, home-country advice, truthful records, and provider-specific applications.
Delaware
VC, C-Corp, startup counsel, investor expectations, equity rounds, and Delaware-first legal workflows.
Can be unnecessary for founders who only need a simple remote LLC foundation.
Florida
Real Florida operations, local nexus, staff, inventory, customers, or Florida-specific founder facts.
Annual report costs and local obligations should be compared before choosing it from abroad.
New Mexico
Low-cost and privacy-oriented LLC research for founders ready to assemble the workflow themselves.
Registered Agent, EIN, address/mail, documents, and non-US founder workflow still need to be organized.
What WYOM organizes and runs
- Coordinates Wyoming LLC formation for non-US founders.

- Coordinates EIN request workflow for founders without SSN.
- Provides official mail handling and scanned delivery.
- Organizes company documents, status tracking, and dashboard access.

What stays outside WYOM's scope
- WYOM organizes and runs the company foundation; legal advice should come from qualified professionals.
- Tax advice, accounting, and bookkeeping remain separate professional services.
- Banking, financial provider, payment processor, and marketplace services remain outside WYOM's scope.
- Third-party provider applications are handled separately by the founder or the relevant provider.
- Registered Agent service is arranged through commercial Registered Agents in Wyoming.
- Government, provider, tax, marketplace, and platform outcomes depend on the relevant agency or provider.
Why this distinction helps founders
The distinction keeps the offer honest. WYOM prepares the company foundation. Provider approval, tax treatment, local compliance, business licensing, and professional advice are separate decisions made by the relevant provider, authority, or advisor.
