What this service is

A U.S. Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a common entity form for foreign businesses entering the U.S. market, combining liability protection with tax flexibility.

Forming an LLC is often the prerequisite for opening a U.S. business bank account, joining marketplaces, signing local contracts, and certain regulatory filings.

Who needs it

Exporters planning to sell, contract, or collect payment through a U.S. entity
Businesses that need a U.S. company identity for marketplace onboarding or customer trust
Founders who prefer to keep personal names and contact details off public records

Prerequisites and sequence

  • A proposed company name (must pass availability check in the chosen state)
  • A chosen state of formation (we explain the differences based on your actual business needs)
  • Identity documents for members/managers (passport or equivalent)

Who holds regulatory responsibility

The founders form the company. We file with the state through a registered agent; you are responsible for the authenticity of member information and business activities.

Materials we need from you

Passport or identity document of the founder(s)

Common pitfalls

Forgetting the state annual reportAn LLC must file an annual report and fee with the state. Missing it puts the company out of good standing, which affects banking and marketplace onboarding.
Treating the business address as a place of operationsThe physical business address handles mail and registration; it is not evidence of actual operations. Some banks and platforms ask about real operating arrangements, and inconsistent answers can get an account application declined.
Ignoring tax filing obligationsEven with no revenue, a foreign-owned U.S. LLC generally has annual information filing duties. Skipping them accumulates penalties, so arrange bookkeeping and tax filing right after formation.

FAQ

Which state should we form in?

Delaware and Wyoming are common choices; states differ in annual fees, privacy, and maintenance requirements. We recommend based on your actual scenario, such as whether you will operate physically in the U.S. and what your platforms require.

Can we get an EIN without a U.S. Social Security Number?

Yes. Foreign founders can obtain an EIN through a specific process without an SSN. We prepare the corresponding application documents.

Can the business address receive bank mail?

Yes. The physical business address is a real street address that can receive official mail. We scan and forward it digitally so you can act on it from anywhere.
