Wyoming · RecordingWyoming recording fees: $12 for the first page, $3 for each extra page

Wyoming sets county clerk recording fees by statute. The charge for recording any instrument is $12 for the first page and $3 for each additional page (W.S. 18-3-402(a)(xvi)(A)). An instrument with more than five grantors or grantees of different surnames, or more than five claim names, costs $1 more for each additional name (§18-3-402(a)(xvi)(M)). Each section, block, lot or tract description beyond ten adds $1 (§18-3-402(a)(xvi)(N)), and an instrument with more than two real estate descriptions given by book and page only adds $2 for each additional description (§18-3-402(a)(xvi)(R)). The clerk also charges $2 for an acknowledgment and $5 for a certification (§18-3-402(a)(xvi)(C), (J)).
