Wyoming Standard Residential Lease Agreement Template

Maximum Amount: Wyoming law does not establish a limit on the amount a landlord may collect as a security deposit.

• Receipt Required? No.

Return Period: The landlord must return the security deposit, minus any lawful deductions, within 30 days after the termination of the rental agreement, or 15 days after receiving the tenant’s new mailing address, whichever is later. This period is extended by an additional 30 days if there is damage to the unit (§ 1-21-1208(a)). 

• Itemized List Required? Yes. If withholding funds from the security deposit, the landlord must deliver a written itemization detailing the reasons for any deductions within the aforementioned return window (§ 1-21-1208(a)). 

Lead-Based Paint Disclosure: For residential structures constructed before January 1, 1978, landlords must distribute the federal EPA Lead Hazard Pamphlet (PDF) and disclose any known lead-based paint hazards before lease execution (40 CFR § 745.113).

Nonrefundable Fees Disclosure: Any rental agreement must state whether any portion of a security deposit is nonrefundable and written notice of this fact must also be provided to the tenant when the landlord accepts the deposit (§ 1-21-1207).
