What a Wyoming power of attorney does
It lets your chosen agent step into your shoes for the tasks you allow — paying bills, managing bank accounts, handling real estate or taxes — which is invaluable if you travel, deploy, or want a plan in case of illness. You stay in control: you decide the powers, whether it’s durable, and you can revoke it anytime.
Signing it correctly in Wyoming
A POA only works if institutions accept it, which is why the signing formalities matter. Get itnotarized, add witnesses if Wyoming requires them, and check whether your state has a statutory form banks prefer. See the current Wyoming power-of-attorney requirements.
Frequently asked questions
Does a Wyoming power of attorney have to be notarized?
In Wyoming, notarization is not strictly required by statute but is strongly recommended — banks and other institutions almost always expect a notarized POA, so notarize it anyway (as of 2026). Source: Wyo. Stat. §3-9-105 (form §3-9-301).
What is a durable power of attorney?
A “durable” power of attorney stays in effect even if you later become incapacitated — which is usually the point of having one. A non-durable POA ends if you lose capacity. Set “durable” in the form to keep the agent’s authority in place; this is the more common choice for planning ahead.
What powers can I give my agent?
You can grant broad authority (banking, real estate, bills, taxes, insurance) or limit it to specific tasks. List exactly what you want your agent to handle in the “powers” field. Some acts (like real estate) may need extra formalities to be recorded in Wyoming.
Can I revoke it later?
Yes. You can revoke a power of attorney at any time while you have capacity by notifying your agent in writing (and any institution relying on it). Keep the signed original safe and give copies only to those who need them.
Is a power of attorney durable by default in Wyoming?
Yes. In Wyoming a power of attorney stays effective if the principal becomes incapacitated unless the document says otherwise. Source: Wyo. Stat. § 3-9-104(a).
Does Wyoming have a statutory power of attorney form?
Yes — State of Wyoming Statutory Form Power of Attorney, Wyo. Stat. § 3-9-301. Banks and agencies are most familiar with it; the template here follows the same structure. Source: Wyo. Stat. § 3-9-301(a).
How do I revoke a power of attorney in Wyoming?
