protection and stability you need. Incorporation protects you from being personally liable for problems that may arise from the operation of your business. To be successful starting a new business in the U.S., you will need to understand all the requirements for incorporation, the options available, and plan meticulously.<\/p>\n\n<p>You can use the following checklist to guide you in planning your new business venture. The list should not be construed to be either U.S. legal support or U.S. accounting advice. It should be used only to guide you in discussions with your lawyer and accountant.<\/p><br>\n<h2>BUSINESS ENTITY START-UP CHECKLIST<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Are you a foreign national wanting to start a U.S. business?

You and your business are separate legal entities, you must have separate personal and business accounts. You may not intermingle money from personal to business or business to personal.<\/li>\n<li>Obtain any necessary additional financing.<\/li>\n<li>Establish a location for your business. The simplest way to do this is to lease an office.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<br>\n<p>Every state requires a registered agent in the USA to represent your company within the state where the company is incorporated or authorized to do business.<\/p><br>\n\n<h2 id=\"non-resident\">HOW TO SET UP A U.S. COMPANY AS A NON-RESIDENT<\/h2>\n<p>Although the steps for starting a new business in the U.S. are virtually the same for a non-resident as a resident, there are additional requirements. For most non-residents, observing international tax law, obtaining visas and opening a U.S. bank account present the greatest problems.

The winner is the one ready to use open possibilities faster than others. Sometimes every month or year counts. You may have only a few days to successfully implement a business-idea.<\/p><p>So in international transactions, one may urgently need to engage a registered offshore company or a US company. Having no time for registration, the best option is buying a shelf company abroad. An established offshore in the US or other jurisdiction may become the missing puzzle in a business-scheme or an essential part of a planned international deal.<\/p><h2>A shelf company in the US<\/h2><p>A ready made \u201cshelf\u201d company is a company that has been registered but has never conducted business and has no assets and liabilities. The key feature for a beneficiary is the cleanliness of its history.<\/p><p>As a rule, when buying a shelf company, you save your time on registration and can benefit right away from the offshore jurisdiction or a registered US company. However, in order to avoid future risks, it is essential to be sure of the credibility of any registration agent selling you a shelf company.<\/p><p>For certain business aims, you may need a shelf-company established some time ago. It can be also described as vintage or aged. For example, while opening an affiliate in several countries or making contracts with an extremely demanding contracting party, new companies are sometimes perceived with mistrust or not considered as partners at all. High-profile partners insure themselves against cooperation with \u201cday-flies\u201d and prefer to deal with time-proven companies.<\/p><h2>An offshore shelf company<\/h2><p>The need to buy an offshore company may be based on a desire to save or secure your assets. However, that\u2019s not the only useful feature of an offshore. An offshore shelf company can be used to fix former and conduct future transactions, to optimize taxation and also to add prestige in counterparts\u2019 eyes. However, one should mind confidentiality and personal data protection and work only with professional offshore service dealers, who value their reputation.<\/p><h2>How to buy a shelf company?<\/h2><p>First, you need to decide on the jurisdiction for your shelf company. Then you are to specify if you need a new shelf company or an aged offshore. Prices for shelf companies directly depend on a country of incorporation and age of a company. The older it is \u2013 the higher its price.<\/p><p>Beware of cheap proposals. It\u2019s easy to cheapen an offshore by selling it to several clients or conceal additional payments and fees. Unfortunately, there are many shady providers, selling pre-owned businesses with a rich history as shelf companies.<\/p><p>Do you need a California-based company for your business ideas as soon as possible? Or, for instance, do you urgently need an aged firm in Hong Kong to make contracts with Chinese companies? American Corporate Services, Inc. is the best option. We have aged offshores in various jurisdictions, as well as American companies of different operational history ages.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2384\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Registered Agent<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2384\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2384\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><h2 class=\"usa-service\">In the U.S:<\/h2>\nLegislation of every state requires business entities to have Registered Agents.\n\nInformation on a Registered Agent is open to the public and is published on the Secretary of State website.\n\nA Registered Agent receives service of process and other legal notices on behalf of a company and sends such notices timely to the company.\n\nA Registered Agent is usually designated at the time a company registers in a state, but it can be changed anytime.\n<h2 class=\"world-service\">Outside the US:<\/h2>\nLegislation of all jurisdictions requires every corporation or company in the country to have a Registered Agent.\n\nDepending on the country, a Registered Agent can be represented by:\n<ul>\n<li>a resident private individual;<\/li>\n<li>a local corporation;<\/li>\n<li>a foreign corporation, authorized to operate in the country.<\/li>\n<\/ul><br>\nRegistered agents will timely forward notices and send all legal papers and judiciary documents to the company.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"5\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2385\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Nominee Services<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2385\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"5\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2385\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Nominee Services (Nominee Directors, Managers and Nominee Shareholders or Members) as provided by our company help the owner of the business maintain absolute privacy in relation to the public while keeping full control over corporate matters.

Having a US company is safe, prestigious and beneficial. That&#8217;s why many entrepreneurs, running their own companies, for instance, in Russia, consider more and more often the opportunity to invest money wisely and develop further, setting up a business in the US. Entrepreneurs having enough finances to establish a business in the US have several options. One is buying a firm abroad.<\/p><h2>How to purchase a business in the US<\/h2><p>If you have enough assets but have no time to register a company abroad, you\u2019ll benefit from buying an already established business. Do take a serious approach; investigate thoroughly the company so as to buy a firm which does not just keep its head above water at the moment, but is able to compete for years. A shelf company overseas saves time on document preparation, staff formation, a search of contractors and efficient channels of promotion, and on positioning its products.<\/p><p>Nevertheless purchasing a business in the US involves risks. First, it requires a considerable sum of money which is to be paid, as a rule, all at once. Second, one can carelessly buy a firm that has passed its maturity stage and is falling into decline. Here only a professional can keep the firm from bankruptcy.<\/p><p>Thus, while analyzing what business to do in the US, you should collect maximum data on the target company. It must not just stay afloat at the moment of purchase, but must be able to keep up with business competitors for a long time. Buying a shelf-company will save time on documents, personnel recruitment and selection of suppliers, on product or service promotion and marketing placement.<\/p><h2>How to get a Green Card or the US visa by purchasing a business<\/h2><h3>L-1 Visa<\/h3><p>To get an L-1 visa you must own a company operating for 3 years or more, established for example in Russia, Ukraine or other CIS country. You must have worked at the firm over a year. The company opens a representative office overseas, a branch or subdivision, or it buys an American firm, and assigns you, as a top manager, to head the new office. Moreover, specialization of a parent company and specialization of the associated company need not correspond at all.<\/p><p>With an L-1 visa you will be able to go to the States with a family, children under 21 included. The marital partner of a visa holder receives permission to work for an American company and the children are be able to attend a school or a university in the US. The L-1 visa is granted for a period of one to three years with a possible extension to seven years in total.<\/p><h3>E-2 Visa<\/h3><p>An E-2 investor visa is valid for citizens of Taiwan, Mongolia, Turkey, Egypt, Poland, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and many other countries and requires a minimum investment of $100,000. One can purchase and develop a business on that sum of money.\u00a0<\/p><h3>EB-5 Visa<\/h3><p>An EB-5 visa does not require running any business. It is enough to invest $900,000 in the US economy, to create 10 workplaces and show that your money is earned or received legally. In that case, a Green card \u2013 permanent US residency \u2013 is usually given in a year.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"8\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2388\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Annual Support<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2388\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"8\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2388\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p>Most states require a periodic report that updates\u00a0an\u00a0LLC\u2019s or a corporation\u2019s basic information. As a minimum, this report typically provides current information regarding the principle business location, the name and address of the registered agent, and the names of the company\u2019s officers.<\/p><p>Failure to maintain a registered agent or to file the annual report as required by the individual state may result in the company losing its good standing. Without a current Certificate of Good Standing a company may not be able to secure additional financing for operations or expansion. In order to ensure that companies comply with filing requirements, many states also require registered financial institutions to secure a copy of the loan applicant\u2019s certificate.<\/p><p>Companies are expected to comply with deadlines and filing requirements for all government reports without prompting from the particular government agency to which they are due. It is, therefore, not uncommon to misunderstand or forget when your annual reports are due.<\/p><p>One of the most important services that ACS offers is taking care of your day-to-day and annual reporting needs, freeing you to focus on successfully operating your business and achieving your company objectives.<\/p><p>Veit, Inc.:<\/p><ul><li>Alerts you when an annual report is about to come due<\/li><li>Confirms the accuracy of the required information<\/li><li>Makes any needed updates on the required forms<\/li><li>Files the form with the proper governmental agency<\/li><li>Notifies you of the successful filing<\/li><\/ul><p><br \/>Failure to file correctly and on time is seldom done maliciously, but the consequences for that failure are the same, regardless of intent. No company can afford the otherwise unnecessary inconvenience of often extensive corrective action to regain their good standing simply because they failed to file a report on time.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Services: Company Registration US Company registration Offshore Company Formation Shelf Companies Registered Agent Nominee Services Virtual office Business buying Annual Support US Company registration STARTING A NEW BUSINESS IN THE U.S. Incorporation is the key to safely starting a new business in the U.S. because incorporation provides the asset protection and stability you need.
