• Jurisdiction: Wyoming
• Title 31: Motor Vehicles
• Ch. 19: RENTAL VEHICLE AGENCIES
• Art. 1: RENTAL AGENCY CERTIFICATE; REGISTRATION; SURCHARGE

Text

(a) The department shall not issue a rental agency
certificate to any applicant without an established place of
business. If a rental vehicle agency changes the location of
its established place of business, the rental vehicle agency
shall immediately notify the department. A new rental vehicle
agency certificate shall be granted if the new location meets
all the requirements of an established place of business. If a
rental vehicle agency ceases to have an established place of
business, the rental vehicle agency shall immediately surrender
its rental vehicle agency certificate to the department until
the rental vehicle agency obtains an established place of
business. The rental vehicle agency certificate shall be
reissued without charge if a place of business is established.
Nothing in this act shall be construed to prevent a rental
vehicle agency from conducting its business at one (1) or more
licensed supplemental lots or locations not contiguous but
operated and maintained in conjunction with the rental vehicle
agency's place of business.
(b) The established place of business shall be a permanent
commercial building:
(i) Which is located within the state of Wyoming at
which place the business of a rental vehicle agency, its
facilities, and a sign may be carried on or displayed in
accordance with the terms of all applicable building codes,
zoning, and other land-use regulatory ordinances prescribed by
the municipality or county in which it is located;
(ii) Which is not primarily used or attached directly
to a residence and which is sufficiently identified with an
exterior sign permanently affixed to the building or land with
letters clearly visible from the highway facing the site to
indicate the nature of the business;
(iii) Which maintains a permanent, published
telephone number;
(iv) At which building the public may contact the
rental vehicle agency or employees thereof at all reasonable
times; and
(v) At which shall be kept and maintained, physically
or electronically, the books, records and files as required by
W.S. 31-19-105(e) as necessary to conduct the business.
