US incorporation

Business incorporation in the United States

Forming and running a company in the United States.

Our US incorporation service helps entrepreneurs and business owners quickly and easily form legal business entities in all 50 U.S. states.

We are able to form C-Corporations, S-Corporations, LLCs, non-profits, and other types of business entities.

There are several benefits to registering a company in the USA, including access to a large and stable economy, a transparent legal system, and a well-developed infrastructure. Additionally, incorporating in the USA provides limited liability protection, which means that the personal assets of the company's owners are shielded from business liabilities. This makes it easier to secure funding and attract investors. Registering in the USA also provides the opportunity to participate in government contracts and gain access to government support programs. It can enhance a company's credibility and reputation, both domestically and internationally.

Depending on the type of business entity you choose, you may need to provide Articles of Incorporation, an Operating Agreement, or another applicable filing document. We can help you determine which documents you need to provide.

Prices can vary depending on the type of business entity you're forming, the state of formation, and other factors. To get an accurate estimate of your filing fees, please contact us for a free consultation.

Indian residents

Company setup in the United States for Indian residents

Setting up in the United States from India.

Yes, Indian companies may incorporate in the US. Depending on the specific business needs, a company may choose to establish itself as a C Corporation, an S Corporation, or a Limited Liability Company (LLC).

The most commonly used business entities for Indian companies in the US are C Corporations and LLCs. An LLC is advantageous because it offers a pass-through taxation structure, while a C Corporation allows for a double taxation structure.

The process typically involves filing the appropriate paperwork with a state government, selecting a registered agent, obtaining a federal tax ID number, obtaining any necessary business permits, and completing the necessary legal documents.

Advantages of incorporating in the US include greater access to capital, increased credibility with customers and business partners, and the potential for lower tax rates. Disadvantages can include higher upfront costs, legal fees, and complexities related to managing compliance and business operations in the US.

An LLC (Limited Liability Company) is a type of business entity that has a flexible organizational structure and offers limited liability protection to its owners. An Inc (Incorporated) is a type of business entity that is owned by shareholders and managed by directors, and offers limited liability protection to its owners. Each type of business entity requires different paperwork and has distinct advantages and disadvantages.

ITIN

Obtaining an ITIN

Getting and using a US taxpayer identification number.

An ITIN is a nine-digit number that is issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and used for tax-reporting purposes. It is required for those who are required to have a U.S. tax identification number, but are not eligible to get a Social Security Number (SSN).

An ITIN can be requested by foreign nationals and other non-resident entities who are required to have a U.S. tax identification number. This includes individuals, estates, and trusts that have a valid taxpayer identification number from their home country, but are not eligible to receive an SSN.

Depending on whether you are applying as an individual, estate, or trust, the documents that you need in order to apply for your ITIN can vary. Generally, the documents that you need to provide include proof of foreign status, supporting identification documents and, if applicable, proof of U.S. filing status such as Form W-7, W-8, or W-9.
