Wyoming Department of Revenue
The Wyoming Department of Revenue is a state agency of Wyoming. It is located in the Herschler Building in Cheyenne, the state capital. Bret Fanning was appointed Director by Governor Mark Gordon on August 1, 2025.[1][2] He succeeded Brenda Henson who served from 2021 until her retirement in early 2025.[2]
According to their website, the agency is responsible for:[3]
- administration and collection of mineral and excise taxes
- valuation of property
- the wholesale distribution of alcoholic beverages
- enforcement of liquor control laws
To oversee each of these functions the Department has multiple divisions, each with their own leadership.[1] The five divisions are:Administrative Services, Excise Tax, Property Tax, Mineral Tax, and Liquor.[2]
Wyoming does not impose an income tax.[4] Local governments mostly rely on property tax with 60% of these revenues from mineral production.[4]
