US Entity Compliance · Non-US Founders

Your LLC is formed.
Is it actually compliant?

Most foreign-owned US LLCs are one missed filing away from a five-figure IRS penalty — and most owners don't find out until the notice arrives. We run the diagnostic, then run the compliance, so it never gets that far.

A recent case

What the audit actually catches

Entity: Wyoming SMLLC
Owner: Non-US resident
Business: E-commerce / FBA
Tenure: 14 months
