Why founders choose a US LLC

The LLC is a flexible US entity offering limited liability and a simple management structure. Many international founders use it to access US customers, platforms and payment providers.

Typical steps

Choose a state, confirm name availability, appoint a registered agent, file the Articles of Organization, prepare an Operating Agreement and apply for an Employer Identification Number (EIN).

After formation

Most LLCs must keep state annual reports current, maintain a registered agent and meet federal reporting obligations. Banking is a separate application decided by each provider.
