I would like to check with you if, as I think, I am allowed to:
1) open an on-line service (no products) US-incorporated (NC) business while being resident and living in Europe.
YES
2) use my European address as both legal address and office.
YES
3) avoid using a registered agent there.
Not Sure
4) avoid to open a bank account in US.
YES
5) avoid to open an EIN
I think I need to open the EIN to report the business taxes to IRS.
Dear Joe,
1) Yes – that’s correct. You can own a US company while living in Europe. Keep in mind, certain entity types such as S-Corporations require all shareholders to be US persons.
2) Yes – that’s correct. Your European address can be used as business address.
3) Every company registered in North Carolina must maintain a registered agent with a physical presence in North Carolina. We provide this service for $99 a year.
4) Yes – that’s correct. You don’t have to have a bank account for your US company in the US, you can open one in Europe or elsewhere.
5) Foreign-owned companies must have their own EIN.
The instrument presented was either declined by the processor or bank, or it can't be used for this payment.
Try again later.
(a) You made a typo in the card number, CCV code, expiration date, name or address;
(b) Your card balance is too low;
(c) Issuing bank has declined this transaction for some other reason related to your account.
