Hi, I am a foreign citizen residing in Germany. I run several online businesses and I’m looking to open a corporation in the USA. What is the process for this and what are the costs for this? Thanks.
Dear Dietrich,
The process of opening a company in the United States with the help of MyUSAcorporation.com website is very simple and involves only two pages of information that you have to fill out – mostly your contact details and some information about the company you would like to open.
As for the costs, the costs will depend on the the type of company – corporation or limited liability company (LLC) – and the state in which you choose to open it. I suggest that you consider opening an LLC in the State of Wyoming. An LLC is a great form of a legal entity that grants the owners the same limited liability protection as a corporation, but has fewer operating restrictions and may have some tax advantages. As we are not tax professionals, we cannot give you detailed tax advice, so you should consult a qualified adviser who can help with that. I recommended Wyoming as the venue for your new company because it is a state with very business friendly laws and no state tax. It is also easy and cheap to maintain a company in Wyoming.
The cost of forming a Wyoming LLC for a foreign citizen with the help of MyUSAcorporation.com is approximately $583. You can begin the process by following this link: “Form an LLC in Wyoming“. Once you are redirected to the following page, please click on the grey link at the top that says “International Clients: click here if you live outside of US.” From that point on the process should be very simple to follow.
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.
