You are launching a dropshipping store, an Amazon account or a Shopify brand, and you are wondering which structure to operate under? For a non-resident seller, the answer is almost always the same: the US LLC. It brings together everything an online seller needs to sell seriously on the international stage.
Why e-commerce sellers choose the US LLC
An LLC opens up Stripe US and PayPal US so you can collect payments in dollars all over the world, protects your personal assets thanks to limited liability, and brings you into the most credible business ecosystem there is. For your customers and your partners alike, a US company inspires trust instantly.
Shopify, Amazon, suppliers: the credibility of a US structure
With an LLC and its EIN, you open a US Amazon seller account, you activate Shopify Payments and you negotiate with suppliers who take US companies far more seriously than individuals. Many marketplaces and aggregators reserve their best terms for US structures.
A lighter tax load for non-residents
If you are a non-resident and your activity stays digital, with no physical presence in the United States, your LLC is tax transparent and pays no US corporate income tax. You simply remain required to file your annual return, which we handle for you as part of tax compliance.
Many people get started without an EIN or a US bank account, then watch their Stripe or Amazon account get blocked at the very first sales. Without a complete foundation, your store can grind to a halt at the worst possible moment, just when revenue is taking off.
