Do non residents have to pay any tax if they withdraw money from their LLC to the personal account. And do non residents LLC needs to pay any tax if it is doing Amazon FBA

[@JVJ_2000]

If you take out certain income like dividends, interests, etc. There'll be a 30% with holding tax. You can take out salary,fees, commissions without taxes if I am right.

[@ErlinBrands]

Could you make a video about form an LLC including New Mexico? For a Non Residents with no clients in the US I think is the most cheapest option to create and maintain. A video comparing WY and NM would be interesting.

Thanks for the suggestion, Erlin :)

Hello - I am confused between DE

[@buynowonline795]

Bravo. You are accurate and to the point broo. Thumbs up

[@oftahaya]

What I don't understand is that there should be no payment other than the annual reporting fee. If the other payments you wrote are made by another person, are they fees because, as I said, when I researched for Wyoming, I did not see any fee other than the annual reporting fee?

For a short term rental company that operates across the US, which would be better?

[@startglobalhq]

Wyoming should be a good choice. If you operating physically in other states, you may have to do a foreign filing in each state you operate in.

[@hvacstudent967]

My non-resident is an EIN 88 irrevocable trust, if the trust [primary LLC shareholder] was to setup shop in Delaware as a foreign LLC, I would still need to register as a foreign entity if doing business with the public in another state, correct?

How can you open an LLC without a registered agent in Wyoming? Under what circumstances, do I need to register another LLC in my home state to do business with this WY LLC?

[@startglobalhq]

If you want to form an LLC in Wyoming, you need to have a registered agent located in WY. There's no way around it. If you own the WY LLC, but reside in another state (home state) and conduct business in home state, you will be considered doing business in the home state. In almost all of these cases, you may have to register your WY LLC in the home state (known as foreign LLC).

[@solivangirl923]

Great video, short and plenty of useful information! Could you please advise on financial reporting and taxes for an LLC in WY with revenues from TX and COGS from Colombia/South America

How much is your book keeping and filing of tax forms service every year ? If owner is not citizen and not resident

[@startglobalhq]

It really depends on the number of transactions of the business. We charge a monthly amount for bookkeeping+tax filing. If you only want tax filing, we do it annually. Please head on over to www.startglobal.co and talk to our customer support team for accurate pricing.

Since the services are conducted in US, LLC will have to pay US income taxes. For very specific tax questions, you would have to consult a tax attorney (or sign up with StartGlobal) as we wouldn't be able to offer tax advice on KZbin comments :(

Would it be necessary / doable to transfer LLC to to other state in case of permanent address?

Yes, it is possible to move over one's LLC across states. However, this may not be a simple process as it may require dissolution in one state, transfer of assets and formation in another state. (Depends on the state)

[@startglobalhq]

You can definitely form a Wyoming LLC. But since you personally are living in Maryland, you will considered 'doing business in Maryland' and this may require your Wyoming LLC to register in Maryland (as a foreign LLC) as well. I feel it would be easier to just form a single Maryland LLC.

How much the tax rate in Wyoming and Delaware?

[@startglobalhq]

It depends on the type of business. Mostly no state income taxes.

[@sonnyse7en]

It would be interesting to know the implications in terms of laws, taxes, etc. if the LLC is registered and owned by a Foreign Company (like an EU company for example) and not just by an individual. This is never sadly addressed by anyone on KZbin

[@startglobalhq]

How taxes are calculated is pretty much the same for foreign individual-owned LLCs and foreign companies-owned LLCs.

[@Bambotb]

@@startglobalhq you're awesome bro

[@XJLCA]

Why would you want to register an US LLC owned by a foreign company? It kind of defeat the purpose of registering a LLC from a tax perspective and create massive tax complexity and potential double taxation issues in your own country, you might as well register a C Corp instead.

[@_mihaigavrila]

Hi, I am from Romania and I want to open an LLC in Delaware, but I will have to pay taxes in Romania as well? And what are annual taxes for an agency?

[@startglobalhq]

For an agency (marketing, design or IT), if you don't have any 'permanent establishment'(office) or a 'dependent agent'(employee or exclusive contractor) physically located in the US, you wouldn't have to pay Federal income tax. You WILL most likely have to pay taxes in Romania (you'll have to check with Romanian tax experts). Delaware($300) and Wyoming($50 or more) have a fixed annual franchise tax. If you want a confusion-free place to get it all one, Startglobal has an all-in-one formation package for $599 where you get an LLC + US bank + debit card(physical & virtual) + 1st year franchise tax + address + phone number + registered agent. If you want bookkeeping and other tax requirements, that's also available on our dashboard.
