FAQ

USA questions

Can a non-resident form a US LLC?

Yes, non-residents can form a US LLC. You will normally also need an EIN, and many foreign-owned single-member LLCs must file Form 5472 with a pro forma Form 1120 each year. We confirm what applies to your entity before you commit.

Do I have to mail my original passport to get an ITIN?

Not necessarily. An ITIN is applied for on Form W-7 with proof of identity and foreign status. Certified copies from the issuing agency, or verification by an IRS-authorised Certifying Acceptance Agent, are alternatives to posting an original.

Can you help if I have a UK LTD and a US LLC?

Yes. That is the situation we are set up for. One named advisor keeps both filing calendars in view, so Companies House and HMRC deadlines sit alongside your US federal and state obligations.
