All guides to open and run your US LLC

The whole path to a US LLC from abroad, step by step. State, registered agent, filing, EIN, BOI, bank account and the forms you file every year.

Wyoming, Delaware or New Mexico? Compare state filing fees, yearly taxes and reports, and what each state makes public, with figures checked on the official state sites.

Non-residents without an SSN or ITIN can still get an EIN. The IRS online form won't work for you, so you file Form SS-4 instead.

If you own a US single-member LLC from abroad, the IRS expects Form 5472 on a pro forma 1120. Who files, what to report, deadlines, how to send it and the $25,000 penalty.
