Why Non-Residents Form a US LLC
A US LLC gives a founder anywhere in the world a credible, globally recognised company, access to US payment rails and platforms, contracts in a legal system counterparties trust, and, if it is owned by non-residents and earns its income outside the US, an entity that is often not itself subject to US federal income tax. That last point is real but easy to get wrong, which is why the compliance section below exists.
You do not need a Social Security Number, an ITIN, a US address or a US phone number to own one. You need a formation done properly, an EIN, a registered agent, an address that receives official mail, and someone who tells you about the annual filings before the penalties arrive. That is the whole package, and it is $399 all-in in Wyoming or $449 in Delaware.

Built for Founders Outside the US
Set Up. Get Compliant. Get Banked.
Everything a non-resident owner needs, with the timelines stated honestly.
No SSN, No US Address
You need neither. We provide the registered office and obtain your EIN by fax on your behalf.
EIN Included
Your federal tax ID, filed with the IRS for you. Four to eight weeks for non-residents; we tell you that up front.
Form 5472 Handled
The annual filing every foreign-owned LLC owes, with its $25,000 penalty. We file it for our own company and keep yours on the calendar.
Registered Agent & Mail
A compliant agent and office in your state, with official mail scanned and forwarded wherever you are.
Banking That Says Yes
Introductions to crypto-friendly banks and EMIs that onboard non-resident companies, and a full setup service if you want it done with you.
Pay in Crypto or Card
Bitcoin, Monero, stablecoins or 300+ coins, or a card. One-off, nothing auto-renews.
Set Up
We form the company, pay the state filing fee, provide a registered agent and registered office for the first year, draft your operating agreement and set up scanning and forwarding of official mail, so the company has a real US address from day one.
Then the EIN, the federal tax ID that every bank and payment provider asks for. It is included. Without an SSN or ITIN it cannot be obtained online, so we file Form SS-4 with the IRS by fax on your behalf. The IRS takes four to eight weeks to issue it; anyone promising a non-resident an EIN in days is not being straight with you. Wyoming is our default recommendation for non-residents: private, cheap to run, no state income tax and no franchise tax.

Get Compliant
This is the part most formation agents never mention, and it carries the biggest penalty. A US LLC owned by a single non-resident is treated as a foreign-owned disregarded entity, and every year it must file Form 5472 attached to a pro-forma Form 1120 with the IRS, whether or not it made a dollar. Miss it and the penalty is $25,000, per year. Add the state annual report (Wyoming's is cheap; Delaware's comes with a $300 franchise tax), keeping a registered agent in place, and the federal beneficial-ownership reporting rules, which have changed more than once and which we track so you do not have to.
We say this with some authority: Spindipper LLC is itself a foreign-owned US LLC and files its own Form 5472. We keep you on the calendar, remind you before each deadline and coordinate the filing with a licensed preparer. From year two, Registered Agent & Compliance is $199 a year, invoiced by us; nothing auto-renews.

Get Banked
A freshly formed LLC with a non-resident owner is exactly the profile mainstream US banks decline on sight, and the account you actually need is the thing formation mills quietly leave you to figure out. What works in practice is a mix of US fintech accounts and licensed EMIs that genuinely onboard non-resident-owned companies, and, above all, an application packaged the way a compliance team wants to read it: business model, source of funds, expected flows, clean KYC.
Every US plan includes an introduction to crypto-friendly banking partners. If you want it done with you end to end, our Banking Setup service shortlists the institutions realistically open to you, prepares the compliance dossier with you and supports you through onboarding until the account is live. Add it to your formation for $499, or come back for it later; it works for a company formed by us or by anyone else. Nobody can guarantee a specific bank says yes, and we will not pretend otherwise, but strong packaging is the single biggest lever on approval and it is the one we pull hardest.

How Long It Takes
Formation: days. Wyoming and Delaware filings are typically complete within one to three business days of your onboarding form. EIN: four to eight weeks for non-residents, filed by fax with the IRS. Banking: usually one to four weeks after the EIN, depending on the institution. We keep you updated at each step, and you can ask the team anything, any time, on Telegram.
All-In Plans for Non-Resident Founders
Both plans include the state filing fee, your EIN (filed by fax for non-residents), a registered agent and office for year one, an operating agreement, mail scanning and a banking introduction. Wyoming prices shown; Delaware is $50 more. Want the account done with you end to end? Add Banking Setup for $499.
To form your company simply choose a plan, pay by card or in your preferred cryptocurrency, and fill out our onboarding form to begin the process.
