Official search · checked Oct 19, 2026

Where do I search Wyoming's unclaimed property?

How we know it's official: The State Treasurer's unclaimed property page links its "Search Unclaimed Property" button here. source ↗

What the official site says

• The search page calls it a free and secure service of Wyoming Unclaimed Property. source ↗

Safe-deposit boxes

Does Wyoming auction unclaimed safe-deposit-box contents?

No. The state doesn't hold its own auction of box contents. Wyoming's Treasurer tells banks not to send box contents with their report, only an inventory, because it isn't accepting the contents. With no contents in state hands, there's no state sale.

After a sale

If the box was already sold, can I still claim the money?

The Wyoming pages we read don't say what happens to the money after a sale. Ask Wyoming State Treasurer's Office directly; its contact details are on the official site ↗.

How to check

How do I check Wyoming for free?

1. Open Wyoming's official search: wyoming.findyourunclaimedproperty.com ↗. Check that the address is this one before you type anything in.
2. Search your name, any past or maiden names, and any business you ran. If a relative has died, search their name too: heirs can often claim. Ask the state office what proof it needs.
3. If you've lived or worked in other states, search those too. MissingMoney.com ↗, NAUPA's free site, searches most states at once and links back to each state's official claim page.
4. File the claim on the official site and send the proof it asks for, such as ID. Each state sets its own rules.

Finders

Do I need to pay someone to claim it?

No. NAUPA, the national association of state unclaimed property administrators, says there's no fee to search for and claim your property if you use your state's official program. Paid finders are legal in most cases but never required. Some states cap their fees and many require them to register, so check with the state office before you sign a finder's contract. NAUPA ↗
