Question 1

Can I open an LLC from my country?

Accepted Answer

Certainly, if you want to create a Limited Liability Company in the United States, i.e., open an LLC, you can do so from any country.

Question 2

Is it necessary to travel to the United States?

Accepted Answer

No, the processing and subsequent management of a Limited Liability Company LLC can be done online from any country.

Question 3

What are the requirements?

Accepted Answer

You only need to be over 18 years old and a photo of your passport, nothing else. The same applies to each member of the company if there is more than one. You can open an LLC or another type of company in the United States from anywhere and without a phone number. You also don't need self-employed workers in the name of your LLC or have partners for your online or physical businesses. However, the services of a registered agent are required so that when opening a business, it has a tax address within the state of formation (not a virtual office). When creating the company, you will need to choose a state, although there will be no obligation to provide services there, as you can serve your customers anywhere in the world.

Question 4

How long does the process take?

Accepted Answer

The timeframe for opening a company in the United States is always subject to the internal processes of the registering state and the country's Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Each state handles different processes, and therefore, the processing time varies from one to another. For its part, processing at the IRS is standard, as it is a federal agency. At Wayfrontier, we cannot guarantee any specific timeframe, as once the procedures are initiated, all that remains is to wait for the documents to be delivered by public agencies.

Question 5

Can I open a bank account in the United States with an LLC?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can open business accounts. If you want to do it without traveling, you can request the opening of a business account in the United States. Bank accounts not available for the following countries due to U.S. restrictions: Belarus, Burundi, North Korea, Cuba, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Libya, Nicaragua, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, South Sudan, Ukraine, Venezuela, Yemen, Zimbabwe.

Question 6

What happens if the bank rejects my application?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that a bank account will be opened. It is the entity itself that, under its policies, decides to accept or reject a business. However, we make sure to offer our services only to clients who meet the conditions to make a valid application.
