A US LLC can be formed from Europe, but the practical outcome depends on more than US filing rules. This 31-country guide maps local classification, management, reporting, relocation and banking questions to check before filing.

The direct answer: New Mexico likely wins the narrow state-cost comparison: its domestic LLC filing fee is $50 and a standard domestic LLC has no routine Secretary of State annual report. Wyoming costs more and has an annual report/license tax, but it may be the better complete setup for a founder who wants Wyoming-focused formation,…
A Wyoming LLC filed online can become active as soon as the online filing is completed, but that is only the first milestone. The EIN is a separate IRS process and may take longer for an international applicant. Banking or fintech approval is another independent review. Your realistic launch timeline therefore depends on the sequence,…
Yes—a US LLC can be part of a completely legal zero-income-tax outcome. The headline is not automatically hype. When the owner is a nonresident alien, the LLC remains a disregarded single-member entity, the income comes from services performed outside the United States, there is no US business footprint, and the owner’s genuine residence country imposes…

Generally, no. A non-US founder does not need an ITIN merely to form a US LLC or before the LLC receives an EIN. The EIN identifies the business; the ITIN identifies an eligible individual for US federal tax purposes.

But an LLC and EIN do not guarantee approval. The provider may also assess the owner’s residence and identity, company addresses, business activity, expected transactions,…
Paraguay does not currently offer a separate “digital nomad visa.” Most remote workers and other non-Mercosur foreign nationals instead use the country’s general temporary-residence process, which requires personal filing in Paraguay. With a complete file, plan around 7–10 working days in Asunción for local appointments and submission. Approval, the residence card and the separate Paraguayan…
