HB0047

Secretary of state-expedited filings.

Final Passage·3/3/25

Wyoming HB0047 allows the secretary of state to charge a fee for expediting document filings and authorizes a position.

Wyoming HB0047 amends the state's statutes to allow the secretary of state to charge a fee of up to $5,000 to expedite the filing of documents under titles 17, 34, and 40, chapters 1 and 2. The fee revenue is intended to fund a new full-time position for the secretary of state until June 30, 2026. The bill also appropriates $93,179 for this purpose, contingent on no additional full-time positions being authorized by other bills. The expedited filing does not grant any timing benefits over non-expedited filings.
