Which disclosures must a Wyoming lease include?

Wyoming landlord-tenant law is governed by Wyo. Stat. Title 1, Chapter 21. Beyond the universal federal lead rule, the disclosures a Wyoming landlord must give at or around lease signing are:

DisclosureAuthorityApplies To
Nonrefundable-deposit disclosureWyo. Stat. § 1-21-1207When a deposit is taken
Lead-based paint hazard + EPA pamphletTitle X (federal)Housing built before 1978

The main Wyoming lease disclosures

Nonrefundable-deposit disclosure (Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-1207): the landlord must disclose in writing whether any portion of the deposit is nonrefundable; a fee not disclosed as nonrefundable is treated as refundable.

Federal lead-based paint disclosure

For older housing this is the one disclosure no Wyoming landlord can skip. If the dwelling predates 1978, Title X (42 U.S.C. § 4852d) requires a signed lead-warning disclosure, disclosure of any known lead hazards, delivery of any available records, and the EPA pamphlet Protect Your Family From Lead in Your Home. Non-compliance carries civil penalties and, in egregious cases, criminal ones.

What happens if a Wyoming landlord skips a required disclosure?

Consequences depend on the disclosure:

  • A missed 30-day itemized deposit return requires the landlord to return the full deposit plus the tenant's court costs (§ 1-21-1208).
  • A nonrefundable fee not disclosed in writing is treated as refundable (§ 1-21-1207).
  • A federal lead-paint violation carries civil and, in egregious cases, criminal penalties plus liability for tenant damages.
