Which state?

We recommend the right state for you

You don't need to be an expert. Answer a few questions in the application and we'll recommend the best state for your situation. Here's how the five most popular states compare for founders outside the US.

Delaware

Best for startups raising investment

The global favorite for founders who plan to raise capital. Its Court of Chancery and predictable case law are what investors expect, and Delaware LLCs are recognized worldwide by banks and payment processors. Franchise tax is about $300 a year.

Wyoming

Best for e-commerce & solopreneurs

The most affordable, privacy-first choice. No state income tax, low fees (about $100 to form, $60 a year), and your name stays off public records. Ideal for freelancers, agencies, SaaS, and digital-first businesses run entirely online.

Nevada

Best for privacy & asset protection

The strongest privacy and asset-protection laws in the US, with no state income, franchise, or corporate tax. Owner details stay private and filings clear in 1–2 days. A fit for high-liability or high-value ventures that need to safeguard assets.

Florida

Best for selling to US consumers

The natural fit for Latin American founders selling into the US. No state income tax, fast online formation, and instant recognition by Stripe, PayPal, and Shopify Payments. Proximity to Latin America means faster shipping and stronger cultural ties.

Texas

Best for growth & scale

Built for businesses that plan to scale. No state income tax and no franchise tax until you pass about $1.23M in revenue, plus world-class ports, airports, and logistics. Ideal for manufacturing, logistics, and fast-growing operations.

Banking & cards

How you get US banking access

Formation is only the start. The reason most founders open a US LLC is to move money like a US business β€” and that's exactly what we set up for you.

A real US bank account

Once your LLC and EIN are ready, we help you open a US business account remotely β€” no travel and no US visit required. You receive account and routing numbers to hold and move USD.

Get paid from anywhere

Use those account details to receive USD from Stripe, PayPal, Amazon, Shopify, and international clients, then move funds home when you need to.

A business Visa card

Spend in USD online and worldwide, set limits for your team, and keep expenses clean and separate from personal finances.
