Short answer: Check the sender and the place it asks you to pay. Wyoming’s reminders come by email from SOS_AnnualReports@wyo.gov, and you file on wyobiz.wyo.gov. A Delaware LLC files no annual report: it pays a yearly tax on the state’s own site. Anything else is likely a private company’s offer, which you do not have to use.
This answer is for the owner of a Wyoming or Delaware LLC who got a letter or email about an annual report or a yearly fee. Your company’s name, address and dates are public. Private companies copy them into offers that look like state notices. Using one is optional. The state’s own steps are short, and you can do them yourself or have us do them.
What the states actually send
- Wyoming. The Secretary of State (checked November 2026) sends courtesy reminders by email 60, 30 and 10 days before the due date. They come from SOS_AnnualReports@wyo.gov. You file the annual report on wyobiz.wyo.gov. It is due on the first day of the month your LLC was formed. Wyoming’s own business alert says it does not require annual minutes.
- Delaware. A Delaware LLC files no annual report. It pays a yearly tax by June 1, on the Division of Corporations site. Delaware’s consumer alert says an official notice carries the Delaware Coat of Arms and the Division’s contact details. Its listed examples are older, from 2013 to 2016, and we found no newer notice.
- BOI reports. Some letters ask for a beneficial ownership (BOI) fee. Since March 2025, FinCEN exempts companies formed in the US from BOI reporting.

The California Secretary of State lists more signs of this kind of mail. Small print says the sender is not a government agency. A line says the form “is not a bill”. The fee is far above the state’s own fee. When in doubt, type the state’s address into your browser yourself. Do not follow the link in the message.
