Common Concerns
Questions British founders ask
We've helped hundreds of British entrepreneurs form US companies. Here are the most common concerns.
Do I need a Social Security Number?
No. You can form a US LLC and get an EIN (Tax ID) without a Social Security Number. We handle the entire application process for you.
Can I do everything remotely?
Yes. The entire process is 100% online. You never need to visit the US to form your LLC, open a bank account, or manage compliance.
How does HMRC reporting work?
As a UK resident, you report worldwide income to HMRC. The UK-US Double Taxation Agreement (DTA) prevents you from being taxed twice on the same income.
Can I open a US bank account?
Yes. We help you open a US business bank account remotely. No visit required. You can receive USD payments and manage funds online.
Will I be taxed in both countries?
The UK-US tax treaty prevents double taxation. A single-member LLC is tax-transparent in the US, meaning profits pass through to your UK tax return.

FAQ
US Company & LLC Questions from United Kingdom
Everything British founders need to know about forming a US LLC or US company
No. The entire LLC formation process is handled remotely. You do not need to travel to the US at any point. We file all documents with the state on your behalf.
The UK-US DTA is a treaty that prevents you from being taxed on the same income in both countries. As a UK resident with a US LLC, you report income to HMRC and can claim credits for any US taxes paid.
Wyoming and Delaware are the most popular choices for UK entrepreneurs. Wyoming has no state income tax, low fees, and strong privacy protections. Delaware is preferred for businesses seeking venture capital.
We help you apply for an EIN (Employer Identification Number) directly with the IRS. No SSN is required. The EIN is your business tax ID and is needed for banking, filing taxes, and hiring contractors.
Your LLC needs a registered agent with a US address. We provide a registered agent service so your LLC has a proper US address for legal correspondence.
We help you open a US business bank account remotely through our banking partners. The process is entirely online and typically completed within 1-2 weeks.
You will need to file an annual report with the state (varies by state), maintain a registered agent, and file US tax returns. We help you stay compliant with reminders and filing support.
A US LLC does not need to be registered at Companies House. However, as a UK tax resident, you must report any foreign income to HMRC on your Self Assessment tax return.
Yes. Your US LLC can hire US-based employees and contractors. You can also hire international contractors. The EIN is used for tax reporting on payments to US workers.
LLC formation typically takes 3-7 business days depending on the state. The EIN application and bank account setup add another 1-3 weeks. Most clients are fully operational within a month.
An LLC (Limited Liability Company) is the most popular type of US company for international founders. It combines liability protection with tax flexibility. Unlike a C-Corporation, a single-member LLC does not pay corporate tax. The LLC profits pass through to you, making it simpler and more tax-efficient for non-US residents.
Yes. One of the biggest advantages of a US LLC is direct access to Stripe, PayPal, Square, and other US payment processors. Many British founders form a US LLC specifically for this reason. You get lower transaction fees, more features, and the ability to accept USD payments globally.
Yes. You do not need a Social Security Number (SSN) to open a US business bank account. Your EIN (Employer Identification Number), LLC formation documents, and a valid passport are sufficient. We help you open your account remotely through our banking partners.
Yes. US LLCs are open to non-US citizens and non-residents. You do not need a US visa, Green Card, or Social Security Number. British founders can form, own, and operate a US LLC entirely from the United Kingdom. There are no nationality restrictions.
Yes. A US LLC can be fully virtual. You do not need a physical office, US employees, or a US address (we provide a registered agent). Many British founders operate their US LLC entirely online from the United Kingdom, serving customers worldwide through their US company.
We handle the entire EIN application process for you. We prepare and submit IRS Form SS-4 on your behalf. No SSN is required for non-US residents. Your EIN is typically issued within 2-4 weeks and is needed for opening a US bank account, filing taxes, and hiring contractors.
