Disclaimer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I am not a tax accountant, I am not a legal expert. All of the following information is based on my own personal experience and research. I would highly recommend speaking to an accountant in your jurisdiction as well as in the jurisdiction you are opening your entity. When it comes to dealing with taxes in the US, I would recommend Online TaxMan<\/a>. \n\nOpening a company in the US will not give you access to a citizenship path or residency. This is purely to provide a simple business structure to get your company off the ground. \n\nAll of this information is related to foreigners (Non-US resident\/Non Citizens). If you're a US Citizen, this information won't be of much use to you. <\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Open your US LLC in Wyoming <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are a multitude of companies out there offering to make this process easy for you. Now I haven’t personally used any of those companies. In my usual stubborn thought process, I said to myself, I’m not paying that, I can totally figure this out myself. Turns out, you too can do it yourself. My research found that a US LLC in Wyoming made the most sense for my circumstances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your company and product is going to more global or US-focused it can make sense for you, to open your company in the United States instead of your own country. Now, if all your customers are in your own country, then you should probably open it there. Opening a company in the US will give you access to a much simpler ecosystem for your business and infrastructure than you might otherwise have at home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The process, once you know it is straight forward. You can save a few hundred dollars doing this yourself. When you’re first getting your company started every dollar counts. It’s also very important to understand the process for opening your business no matter where you open it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m also going to give a bit of a summary of my research that lead me to my decision. If you have already done this or just want to get started right now, skip to the How to steps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why the US? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re not based in the US why should you open an entity there? There are a number of advantages to opening your company in the US compared to other jurisdictions or in your home country. These are just some of the reasons that I have found to be worth noting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Operating costs and startup time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When opening your company there can be a range of costs and fees required to get your company open and maintained. Here in Vietnam it cost me several thousand dollars to get my company open and months of time. For a US LLC the fee structure is very straight forward and time it takes to get your company open is days, not weeks or months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easy fee structure<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
