Trademark cost in Wyoming · USPTO federal coverage
Trademark cost in Wyoming: state vs federal
You can register a trademark at two levels: Wyoming state trademark for $100 (protection limited to Wyoming), or federal USPTO trademark starting at $250 per class (nationwide protection). Most businesses with growth ambitions file federal.

| Filing | Wyoming state | Federal USPTO |
|---|---|---|
| Filing fee | $100 | $250-$350 per class |

When to file federal USPTO trademark

- You sell online (e-commerce inherently crosses state lines)
- You want to use the ® symbol
- You want federal court remedies for infringement
- You plan to license, franchise, or sell the brand someday
