A US LLC gives you professional credibility with US clients, access to US payment tools, and a clean, tax-transparent business structure.
US enterprise clients and mid-market companies often resist paying foreign entities for services: procurement processes require W-9 forms (US tax ID), compliance teams flag non-US business addresses, and payment processes can be slower for international wires. A US LLC eliminates these friction points: you get a US address, an EIN (for W-9 compliance), and a US bank account — making you indistinguishable from a US-based service provider in all practical respects.
No state income tax, low annual fees, excellent banking credibility, strong privacy. Best all-around choice for consultants and agencies.
Maximum institutional credibility. Preferred by enterprise legal teams that recognize Delaware's well-established corporate law. Higher costs but worth it for enterprise-focused agencies.
Nomadic Go forms your US LLC in Wyoming or Delaware, provides a 12-month registered agent address, and helps you get your EIN. We also coordinate US bank account opening. We do not provide US tax advice.
If your services are performed entirely outside the US, the income is generally not 'effectively connected income' and is not US-taxable. However, US tax law is complex and depends on facts and circumstances. Consult a US CPA familiar with non-resident taxation. Nomadic Go does not provide tax advice.
A W-9 is an IRS form where you provide your entity name, address, and EIN to a US client. They use it to report payments to the IRS on a 1099. Without a W-9, many US enterprise clients cannot pay you under their procurement process.
Create invoices with your LLC name, registered address, and EIN. Clients pay via ACH to your Mercury or Relay account, or via wire. Invoicing tools like Wave, FreshBooks, or QuickBooks all support US LLC invoicing with no special setup.
Yes. Banks and clients ask for it. An operating agreement confirms ownership structure, management authority, and operating rules. Without one, Mercury and most EMIs decline account applications even from single-member LLCs.
Yes. US LLC formation is fully remote. You do not need to visit the US to form the LLC, obtain an EIN, open a Mercury or Wise Business account, or activate Stripe. The entire process can be completed from anywhere in the world.
