International Clients Frequently Asked Questions

An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is a tax processing number issued by the IRS for individuals who are required to have a U.S. taxpayer identification number but are not eligible to obtain a Social Security Number (SSN). ITINs are typically needed by non-resident aliens who must file U.S. tax returns, dependents or spouses of U.S. citizens or residents, and non-resident aliens claiming tax treaty benefits.

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is a unique nine-digit number assigned by the IRS to business entities operating in the United States. International clients need an EIN to open a U.S. business bank account, hire employees, apply for business licenses, establish business credit, and comply with U.S. tax requirements. Even if you don't have employees, an EIN is often required for business banking and tax filing purposes.

Yes, non-residents and international clients can form U.S. business entities such as LLCs, corporations, and partnerships. There are no citizenship or residency requirements to form a business in the United States. However, you will need a registered agent with a physical address in the state of formation, and you may need an EIN for tax and banking purposes.

A U.S. address service provides you with a physical U.S. address for legal, financial, and administrative purposes. This is essential for receiving important documents, verifying identity, filing taxes, opening bank accounts, and maintaining compliance. Many international clients need a U.S. address to conduct business operations and meet regulatory requirements.

Premium mail forwarding service allows us to receive your mail at a U.S. address, scan it for your review, and forward it to your international address. This service helps you stay organized, maintain compliance, and ensures you receive important documents promptly. You can review scanned documents online and request forwarding of physical mail as needed.

No, you do not need to be physically present in the United States to form a business entity. The entire process can be completed remotely. However, you will need a registered agent with a physical address in the state where you form your business, and you may need to comply with certain state-specific requirements.

International business owners may have various tax obligations depending on their business structure, income sources, and country of residence. This can include U.S. federal tax filings, state tax requirements, and potential tax treaty benefits. It's important to consult with tax professionals familiar with international tax law to ensure proper compliance.

Yes, non-residents can open U.S. bank accounts, but the requirements vary by bank. Most banks require an EIN, proof of business formation, identification documents, and sometimes a U.S. address. Some banks may have additional requirements or restrictions for non-resident accounts. We can assist you with the documentation needed for bank account opening.

For an ITIN, you typically need a completed W-7 form, proof of identity (passport or other government-issued ID), and proof of foreign status. For an EIN, you need business formation documents, information about your business structure, and details about the responsible party. The specific requirements may vary, and we can guide you through the complete process.

EIN applications can often be processed immediately online or within a few business days by mail. ITIN applications typically take 7-11 weeks for processing by the IRS, though expedited processing may be available in certain circumstances. We can help expedite the process and ensure all documentation is properly submitted.
