Frequently asked questions

Do I need an SSN to form a US LLC for Amazon?

No. You do not need an SSN to form a US LLC or to apply for an EIN as a foreign person. The IRS has a phone/fax application route for non-residents. We walk you through this process step by step.

Why does Amazon require a US entity?

Amazon's US marketplace requires sellers to provide a valid US Tax ID (EIN or SSN) for tax reporting purposes. A US LLC with an EIN satisfies this requirement and is the cleanest structure for receiving Amazon disbursements in USD.

Which state should I form my LLC in - Delaware or Wyoming?

For Amazon sellers, Wyoming is usually the better choice: lower annual costs ($60/year vs Delaware's $300), stronger privacy (no public member list), and no state income tax. Delaware is preferred if you plan to raise VC investment. We review your situation and give a tailored recommendation.

Can I open a US bank account without visiting the US?

Yes. Mercury and Relay are online-first US business banks that accept non-resident LLC owners and do not require an in-person visit. You need your EIN and company documents. Amazon also accepts Payoneer as a disbursement option, but a real US bank account is strongly recommended.

How do I link my LLC to my existing Amazon Seller account?

If you already have a personal Amazon seller account, you can update your business information in Seller Central to reflect your new US LLC. We provide a step-by-step checklist to do this correctly without triggering account reviews.
