US LLC Formation

US LLC formation for non-resident founders

Open a US LLC in any of the 50 states without living in the US. We file, appoint your registered agent and prepare your documents.

What you get

QUICK ANSWER

Can a non-resident form a US LLC?

Yes. US law does not require LLC members to be US citizens or residents. You choose a state, appoint a registered agent with a US address, and file formation documents with that state. Fees and timelines vary by state, so we confirm current figures before you pay.

Overview

A US LLC without the US paperwork maze

Forming a US LLC lets you sell globally, accept USD payments and separate personal and business finances. The hard part is choosing the right state, filing correctly and knowing what comes next.

FenForm handles the filing, registered agent and documents, then guides you to your EIN and bank or payment accounts.

It depends on the state and its current processing times. Some states approve in days, others take longer. We tell you the expected timeline for your state before you start.

Wyoming and Delaware are popular with non-resident founders, but the best state depends on your business. See our state guides or ask our team.

A registered agent provides the US address on public record. A separate business mailing address may help for banks and payment providers.

No. Non-residents can own an LLC without a visa or SSN. For the EIN, the IRS has specific routes for people without an SSN or ITIN.

States usually charge an annual fee or report, and registered agent service renews yearly. Amounts differ by state and can change, so check the official state site.
