Entity setup, tax registrations, and first-year compliance for foreign founders entering the United States — everything in sequence, nothing missed.
The US is the easiest major market to enter on paper and one of the easiest to enter wrong. The formation takes a day; the obligations it triggers run all year — and the sharpest penalties are aimed squarely at foreign-owned companies.
We manage the tax and compliance side of entry end to end: structure chosen with the consequences understood on both sides of the border, EIN obtained without a US Social Security number, elections filed, registrations completed, and the first-year calendar built before the first invoice goes out.
Where legal drafting is required, formation documents are executed through registered agents and attorneys — we coordinate, sequence, and handle every tax element, which is exactly the division of labor a clean structure needs.
Entity-type and state selection from a tax perspective, with formation executed through registered agents and counsel.
EIN applications without an SSN, classification and S-elections where available, and IRS accounts set up correctly from the start.
State tax registrations, sales-tax nexus analysis, and beneficial ownership reporting — which continues to apply to foreign reporting companies.
Every federal and state deadline mapped at setup — annual reports, franchise taxes, Form 5472 — with reminders ahead of each one.
The intersection most firms avoid — US reporting for foreign-owned businesses, cross-border individuals, and structures that need both sides understood.
