On February 14, 2013, the Governor of Wyoming signed House Bill 3 enacting a change to the effectiveness period of UCC financing statements. This extends the filing duration from 5 to 10 years. The change will come into effect on July 1, 2013 along with the 2010 Amendments to Revised Article 9 (RA9).
The Bill states: Except as otherwise provided in subsections (b),(e), (f) and (g), a filed financing statement filed prior to July 1, 2013 is effective for a period of five (5) years after the date of filing and a financing statement filed on or after July 1, 2013 is effective for a period of ten (10) years.
Further: A continuation statement may be filed only within six (6) months before the expiration of the five (5) year period specified in subsection (a) or the thirty (30) year period specified in subsection (b), whichever is applicable.
