A clear walkthrough for founders outside the United States — from choosing a state to taking your first payment.

- 100% online, start to finish
Everything you need to launch, in one package.
Four things have to exist before a U.S. company is real and usable. Here is each one, and what it is actually for.
Registered Agent
Required in your state
Every U.S. company must have an address in its state that can legally accept lawsuits and official notices. We are that address, and we scan whatever arrives the day it arrives.
State Filing
Government fee at cost
We prepare your formation papers, a specialist checks them, and they go to the state. Whatever the state charges is passed straight through — we add nothing to it.
Business Tax Number
No U.S. SSN needed
The EIN. You cannot open a bank account, take card payments or hire anyone without it — and you do not need a Social Security Number of your own to be issued one.
Annual Compliance
Kept current for you
Every state wants a report on a schedule of its own choosing, and a missed one can dissolve the company. We watch the date, draft the filing and confirm the state accepted it.
Pay only for what you need.
Keeping a U.S. company is a handful of small yearly jobs. Buy them one at a time — there is no bundle here you have to take whole.
One deadline a year
$99/yr
Most states want a short report once a year. Miss it and the penalty starts, then the company falls out of good standing.

Mail scanned and sent
$149/yr
A real street address for the company, so the address sitting on the public record is not the one you live at.

Nevada costs $425 to open and $350 every year after. New Mexico costs $50 and never asks again.

The questions we actually get.
If yours is not here, ask a human. We answer in hours.
Yes. There is no citizenship or residency requirement to own a U.S. LLC or C-Corporation. You do not need a visa, a U.S. address of your own, or a Social Security Number. We provide the registered agent address, obtain your EIN without an SSN, and include a U.S. business address in every package, with banking, Stripe and your ITIN on the Pro tiers.
The package price is what you pay us. On top of it sits the fee your chosen state charges to accept the filing — set by the government, not by us, and passed through at cost with no markup. State fees range from $35 in Montana to $500 in Massachusetts. The exact figure for your state is shown in the checkout summary before you pay anything.
If you have a physical presence somewhere — an office, employees, inventory or a storefront — form in that state; forming elsewhere just means registering twice. If you operate entirely online, Wyoming and New Mexico are cheapest to maintain, and Delaware is the standard if you expect to raise venture capital. Our state comparison shows the true first-year and ongoing cost side by side.
Our work takes hours. The rest is the state: Wyoming, Delaware and Colorado typically approve within 1–3 business days, while Arizona and Maine can take two weeks. Every state's current turnaround is published on our pricing page, and rush filing is available where the state offers an expedited channel.
No. We are a document filing and business services company. We prepare and file documents at your direction and explain how the process works, but we do not provide legal or tax advice and no attorney-client relationship is created. For advice specific to your circumstances, consult a licensed attorney or CPA — we are happy to refer you.
Your stamped state documents, EIN letter and agreement pack go into your document vault. From Tax & Compliance up you also get a compliance calendar with every recurring deadline already loaded, and alerts at 60, 30 and 7 days, plus your federal and state returns prepared when they fall due.
Yes, with a clear line. If we have not yet submitted your filing to the state, cancel for a full refund of our service fee. Once the state has the filing, government fees are non-refundable because the state does not return them — but our service fee is still refundable for 30 days if we got something wrong. Full detail is in our refund policy.
No. Every renewal price is printed on the plan before you buy: registered agent is $119/yr, U.S. business address is $149/yr, compliance suite is $99/yr. We email you 30 days before any renewal, and you can cancel from your dashboard in one click.
