How to set up a US Company

This is a long and detailed conversation and should you want to talk more, we would love to share our knowledge with you. As a non-resident looking to set up a US company, you have even more steps to go through than a US resident, and it can be detrimental if you make a mistake. For example, there are more income tax issues for non-residents who want to take their income out of the US. Thankfully, we are fully versed in helping this be an easy and smooth transition because we help many many non-residents do this each year.

Where to INCORPORATE Your US Company

The key thing to know is that you must be registered to do business in the state where your business is located. If you incorporate in the same state where your business is located, then this is automatic. As we have outlined in a previous blog, We feel Nevada is the only state that is the best choice. Nevada is very kind to non-residents as long as all the proper paperwork is filled out. As your registered agent, Kohler FInancial is poised to complete it all for you!
