Common Concerns
Questions Indian founders ask
We've helped hundreds of Indian entrepreneurs form US companies. Here are the most common concerns.
Do I need a Social Security Number?
No. Indian founders can form a US LLC without a Social Security Number. We handle the entire formation process for you.
Will I be taxed in both countries?
The US-India DTAA between India and the US prevents double taxation. A single-member LLC is tax-transparent in the US, meaning profits pass through to your Income Tax Department tax return.
Can I get full Stripe access from India?
Yes. Stripe India has limitations compared to US Stripe. A US LLC with a US bank account gives you a full US Stripe account with lower fees, more features, subscription billing, and the ability to accept 135+ currencies.
Can I open a US bank account?
Yes. We help you open a US business bank account remotely from India. No visit required. You can receive USD payments and manage funds online.
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.

Most LLCs are formed within 1-2 weeks depending on the state.
