Common Concerns
Questions Belgian founders ask
We've helped hundreds of Belgian entrepreneurs form US companies. Here are the most common concerns.
Do I need a Social Security Number?
No. Belgian founders can form a US LLC and obtain 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 Belgian tax reporting work?
As a Belgian tax resident, you report worldwide income to SPF Finances (Federal Public Service Finance). The US-Belgium Tax Treaty 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 from Belgium. No visit required. You can receive USD payments and manage funds online.
Will I be taxed in both countries?
The US-Belgium Tax Treaty prevents double taxation. A single-member LLC is tax-transparent in the US, meaning profits pass through to your Belgian tax return.
How long does it take?
Most LLCs are formed within 1-2 weeks depending on the state. Your EIN typically follows within another 1-2 weeks, and you can apply for your US bank account as soon as it arrives.
