Tell us what you're building from India and we'll recommend the right structure, state, and package — plus guidance preparing eligible Stripe, payment-platform and USD banking applications. No payment required.

No payment required. We normally reply by email or WhatsApp within one business day. Please don't submit passports, identity documents, or banking records through this form.

Where we're different

Most services stop at the paperwork. We stay through the banking.

For founders in India, the hard part isn't the LLC — it's preparing strong applications for eligible U.S. banking and payment platforms afterward, and that's exactly where many providers hand you a link and disappear. We prepare your bank-ready document pack, help you evaluate banking and payment providers based on their current eligibility, business-activity and documentation requirements, and keep working with you if a first application is declined. Applications and approvals remain subject to each provider's review — we make sure you arrive prepared, and we don't leave when it gets hard.

Who forms a U.S. LLC from India — and why

Freelancers & agencies

Get paid by U.S. clients in USD

Invoice American and global clients from a U.S. entity, apply for eligible card-payment platforms such as Stripe, and present as the professional operation you are — instead of routing client payments to a personal account.

SaaS & digital products

Apply for Stripe & bill worldwide

A U.S. entity can provide Indian founders with a route to apply for eligible Stripe and PayPal accounts and bill international customers in USD. Each platform applies its own eligibility, verification and approval requirements.

E-commerce & Amazon

Sell on U.S. marketplaces

Run Amazon US, Shopify and other stores under a U.S. company with a U.S. bank account, cleaner payment-gateway relationships, and USD settlement.

Which state? Wyoming and New Mexico are commonly considered by non-resident founders for their fee and maintenance structures; the right state depends on your activity, customers, investors and ongoing requirements — see our best-state guide or non-resident LLC guide. Tell us your plan on the form and we'll recommend the state that fits, or read the full non-resident U.S. LLC overview.

Before you choose a provider

Compare on what actually matters.

Formation services price differently, and a low headline fee can hide higher renewals. Before choosing anyone — including us — compare the full picture and verify current terms directly with each provider.

Initial vs. ongoing

Look past the first-year price. Compare registered-agent renewal, compliance services, and mail handling year over year.

What's included

Check which documents, filings, and support are in the price versus billed separately later.

Support that lasts

Ask what happens after formation — especially with banking. That's where most first-time founders get stuck.

Questions founders in India ask

Good questions, straight answers.

Can I open a U.S. LLC from India as an Indian resident?

Yes. Indian residents can legally own and run a U.S. LLC. You don't need U.S. citizenship, a visa, or a U.S. co-founder. Company formation can generally be completed remotely from India, though banks and payment platforms may require their own verification steps. You do remain subject to Indian law on owning a foreign company — see the tax and FEMA questions below.

Will a U.S. LLC get me Stripe and PayPal?

A U.S. LLC may provide eligible Indian founders with a route to apply for Stripe, PayPal and other international payment platforms. We help you get formation and banking in place so you can apply; each provider applies its own eligibility, verification and approval requirements.

Can I get a U.S. business bank account from India?

U.S. banking options may be available remotely depending on your company, business activity, operating footprint and documentation. We help you evaluate providers and prepare your application. Each provider makes its own eligibility and approval decision.

Do I have to pay tax in India on a U.S. LLC?

Indian residents may have Indian tax and foreign-asset reporting obligations when they own a U.S. company or receive foreign-source income. How it is treated depends on your residency, ownership, management, entity classification and business facts. CrossPoint handles U.S. formation and guidance and does not provide Indian tax advice — please confirm your exact position with a qualified Indian chartered accountant (CA) before operating or remitting funds.

What about FEMA and RBI rules?

Indian residents making an overseas investment may have reporting, bank-routing and ongoing compliance obligations under India's Overseas Investment framework. What applies depends on your ownership, control, funding method and the nature of the business. Before remitting funds, confirm the process with your authorised-dealer (AD) bank and a qualified Indian CA or FEMA adviser. We flag this honestly rather than pretend it doesn't exist.

What documents do I need and how long does it take?

Usually your passport, contact details, and business activity information. Formation is often a few business days and varies by state; bank and payment-platform reviews take longer and are controlled by each provider. We never promise a timeline we don't control.
