Common Concerns

Questions Chinese founders ask

We've helped hundreds of Chinese entrepreneurs form US companies. Here are the most common concerns.

Do I need an SSN or US visa?

No. Chinese citizens can form a US LLC with their Chinese ID card (Shen Fen Zheng) and Chinese passport. No SSN, no visa, and no US travel required.

How do Chinese capital controls affect this?

Your US LLC operates independently with a US bank account. Revenue earned in USD stays in your US account. Moving funds to China is subject to SAFE (State Administration of Foreign Exchange) regulations and the annual $50,000 individual conversion limit.

How does STA reporting work?

As a Chinese tax resident, you report worldwide income to the STA. The US-China Tax Treaty helps prevent double taxation. You may need to report your foreign entity and income to local tax authorities.

Can I use Stripe and US payment processors?

Yes. A US LLC with a US bank account gives you full access to US Stripe, PayPal, and other payment processors. This is the primary way Chinese founders accept international payments outside of WeChat Pay and Alipay.

Can I access USD directly?

Yes. Your US LLC bank account holds USD. You can receive, hold, and spend USD without going through Chinese banks or currency conversion. Revenue stays in USD until you choose to convert.
