US Company Incorporation from India | Register Your USA Company Easily

Launch in the U.S. 100% Remotely Fast, Compliant, Investor-Ready

Are you an Indian entrepreneur ready to expand globally? With USAIndiaCFO, you can register your company in the USA from India, end-to-end online from entity selection and filings to tax IDs, banking, and ongoing compliance. We handle the moving parts so you can focus on customers and growth.

Why incorporate in the U.S.?
 Global credibility, easy access to U.S. payments & enterprise buyers, eligibility for U.S. accelerators and VC, and simpler revenue collection in USD. The key is structuring it right from day one the wrong setup can cost equity, taxes, and time later.

Which U.S. Entity Should You Choose? (LLC vs C-Corporation)

C-Corporation (Delaware C-Corp)
 Best for venture-scale startups, ESOPs, multiple funding rounds. Clean cap tables, standard investor docs, and broad equity tooling. (General characteristics are supported by SBA/IRS guidance and market norms.)

Limited Liability Company (LLC)
 Flexible management, pass-through taxation by default, ideal for services, consulting, and early bootstrap phases; can later convert to C-Corp if needed. (See general structure and tax treatment in trusted primers such as Investopedia.)

Tip: If external VC is in view within 12–18 months, start with a Delaware C-Corp. If you’re testing a service or agency model, start LLC (DE/WY) for simplicity and upgrade later.

State Selection: Delaware, Wyoming, Texas & More (What Really Changes)

  • Delaware
    • Corporations: Annual Report + Franchise Tax due March 1 each year.
    • LLCs: Flat $300 annual tax due June 1, no annual report.
  • Wyoming (LLC)
    • Annual Report/License Tax: minimum $60 (asset-based, WY-sited assets), due each anniversary month. Official schedule confirms formula.
  • Texas (doing business in TX)
    • Franchise tax with $2.47M no-tax-due threshold; even if under threshold, most entities file a Public/Ownership Information Report. Due May 15.
  • California (doing business in CA)
    • LLCs owe $800 minimum franchise tax (first-year waiver expired).

We’ll benchmark where you sell, hire, or bank against each state’s tax/franchise rules to keep you compliant and cost-efficient.

The Most Up-to-Date Compliance You Must Know (2025)

1) Employer Identification Number (EIN)

Foreign applicants can obtain an EIN without an SSN via Form SS-4 (phone, fax, or mail route for international applicants). IRS instructions detail the international application path.

2) Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) / Corporate Transparency Act (CTA)

Change in 2025: Under FinCEN’s interim final rule (Mar 26, 2025), U.S. companies formed under state law (formerly “domestic reporting companies”) are exempt from BOI reporting. Certain foreign entities registered to do business in a U.S. state must still file, with new deadlines (e.g., by Apr 25, 2025 if registered before Mar 26, 2025; 30 days after registration going forward). We incorporate this into your filing plan.

3) BEA BE-13 (Foreign Direct Investment)

If your new U.S. business meets BEA’s “new foreign direct investment” thresholds (≥10% voting interest by a foreign person, acquisition/establishment/expansion rules), BE-13 may be mandatory. We assess eligibility and file or claim exemption. (BEA page updated 2025.)

4) IRS Form 5472 (Foreign-Owned U.S. Corps & DEs)

A 25% foreign-owned U.S. corporation or a foreign-owned disregarded entity often must file Form 5472 (with pro-forma 1120 for DEs), even with no income tax due. We evaluate and handle filings.

5) ITIN (Form W-7) for Non-Resident Individuals

An ITIN is for individuals who must file U.S. taxes but aren’t eligible for an SSN. Owners without SSNs typically need an ITIN when their personal U.S. tax filing obligation arises (e.g., pass-through income, treaty claims, etc.). You do not need an ITIN to form the company itself. We obtain ITINs through approved channels (mail/CAA).

Banking: Open a U.S. Business Checking Account from India

Traditional banks often require in-person visits/SSN, but a growing set of banking-as-a-service providers and fintech partners support remote onboarding for foreign-owned entities, subject to KYC and risk checks. Requirements evolve; we prepare KYC, EIN, company docs, and guide you to current options that accept non-resident founders (e.g., fintech providers that publish remote onboarding guidance).

Our role: We pre-check eligibility, prep KYC, and coordinate introductions so you can open a U.S. checking account remotely without “intermediary” headaches.

Step-by-Step: How We Incorporate Your U.S. Company from India

  • ITIN (as needed for owners): Prepare W-7 packet and supporting evidence; coordinate CAA where appropriate.
  • U.S. Bank Account: Prepare KYC pack; help you select a viable remote banking partner given 2025 onboarding policies.
  • State & Local Registrations: Franchise/sales/use tax, payroll registrations as needed (e.g., DE franchise dates; TX franchise threshold rules).
  • Post-Incorporation Contracts & IP: Founder agreements, IP assignment, NDAs, vendor/customer MSAs, and ESOP readiness.

India-Side Compliance: FEMA / ODI & LRS (So You Stay Fully Clean)

Investing in your U.S. entity from India must respect FEMA (Overseas Investment Rules/Regulations/Directions, 2022) and Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) limits for individuals (currently USD 250,000 per FY; subject to policy changes). We coordinate with your AD bank for documentation.
