Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be in the US to register?
No. Our process is 100% online. You can form your company from anywhere in the world.
How long does it take?
We start your formation immediately and work to complete everything as quickly as possible. Timing depends on state processing and federal applications.
What documents do I receive?
You receive the Articles of Organization/Incorporation, federal confirmation letter, and operating agreement. The FinCEN BOI receipt is provided only if you request the optional BOI filing service.
Is the $399 a one-time fee?
Yes. There are no hidden or recurring charges from us. State annual fees apply after the first year.
Can I do this myself for free?
Short answer — yes.
Anyone can form a U.S. company and handle the follow-up filings on their own. The only unavoidable costs are the state filing fee (set by each Secretary of State, currently $40 – $500 depending on where you file). Everything the federal government issues is free if you do it yourself:
| What | Where to file it on your own | Government fee |
|---|---|---|
| Articles of Organization / Certificate of Formation | Online portal or paper form with the state you choose | State fee only ($40 - $500) |
| Employer Identification Number (EIN) | IRS "Apply for an EIN" tool or Form SS-4 | $0 – the IRS never charges for an EIN |
| Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) report | FinCEN BOI e-filing system | $0 – FinCEN filings are free of charge |
Typical DIY steps
- Pick a state and file the Articles of Organization (or Certificate of Formation) with its business-filings division.
- Appoint a registered agent. You can list yourself if you have a street address in that state that's publicly available and staffed during business hours.
- Request your EIN directly from the IRS (instant online for most U.S. applicants; international founders fax or mail Form SS-4).
- File your BOI report with FinCEN within 90 days of formation (for companies created in 2024 or later).
- Draft internal documents (operating agreement, banking resolutions), open a U.S. bank account, and keep up with each state's annual report or franchise-tax deadlines.
Why founders still hire a service like ours
- Time & logistics: International applicants often can't use the IRS's online EIN portal, must fax documents across time-zones, and need a U.S. mailing address for state correspondence.
- Error prevention: A typo in the state filing will delay or even nullify your LLC. We pre-check everything and liaise with the state or IRS if something gets kicked back.
- One-stop compliance: We bundle the registered-agent address, digital document vault, and first-year reminders so nothing slips through the cracks. BOI filing is available on request as an optional add-on.
Transparency first: We are a private service, not affiliated with the U.S. government. If you have the time and a U.S. address, you can absolutely complete every step above on your own for just the state's fee. Many founders prefer to pay us to do the paperwork so they can focus on launching their business instead of learning 50 different state websites and IRS fax queues.
Feel free to compare both paths and choose the one that makes the most sense for your situation.
