How many days does a tenant get to pay late rent in Wyoming?
In Wyoming, a landlord must give 3 days written notice to vacate before filing a nonpayment eviction. It is a notice to leave rather than a demand to pay. This is Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-1003.
| What | Wyoming |
|---|---|
| Notice before a nonpayment case | 3 days |
| What the notice demands | Leave — a notice to vacate |
Notes
Before a forcible entry and detainer action, the landlord must serve a written notice to leave the premises at least three days before filing — a notice to quit, not a demand to pay. No month-to-month termination, entry-notice or rent-increase notice period is published here.
