Frequently asked questions
Can I use Stripe as a non-resident with a US LLC?
Yes. A US LLC with an EIN and US business bank account lets most non-residents access Stripe US.
Do I need to visit the US?
No. Both the formation and bank account can be handled remotely for most applicants.
Which state is best for a dropshipping LLC?
Wyoming is cheapest with the lowest annual fees and strong privacy. Delaware if you plan to take on investment later.
Will I owe US tax as a non-resident?
A foreign-owned single-member LLC with no US-source income is generally not subject to US federal tax, but you must file Form 5472. Consult a US tax adviser.
