Answers to the most common questions about domestic LLC formation, offshore entities, pricing, and compliance.

💡

General

No. NestEgg.Global is a professional document preparation and business formation facilitation service. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal or tax advice. All formation documents are reviewed by licensed attorneys. We strongly recommend consulting your own attorney or CPA regarding your specific situation.

After you select your jurisdiction and package, you complete a simple online intake form with your company details. We prepare all required documents, coordinate with the registered agent in your chosen jurisdiction, file with the appropriate government authority, and deliver your completed formation documents — typically within 24–72 hours.

You'll receive your Certificate of Formation or Incorporation, Operating Agreement or Articles of Association, Organizational Minutes, and any additional documents specific to your package. Professional and International packages also include EIN assistance, Certificate of Good Standing, and additional compliance documents.

No. Non-US persons can form both domestic US entities and offshore entities through NestEgg.Global. Note that non-US persons forming US entities may have different tax implications. We recommend consulting a tax professional familiar with your home country's laws.

Domestic Formations

Wyoming is our most popular choice for privacy and asset protection — it offers anonymous filing, no state income tax, and strong charging order protection. Delaware is preferred for venture-backed startups and corporations due to its investor-friendly Court of Chancery. New Mexico offers the most affordable anonymous LLC option. The best choice depends on your specific business goals.

No. You can form an LLC in any US state regardless of where you live. If you form in a state other than where you operate, you may need to register as a "foreign LLC" in your home state. Our registered agent service handles the state where you form — you handle any home state registration separately.

A registered agent is a person or company designated to receive legal documents, government notices, and service of process on behalf of your LLC. Every US state requires LLCs to maintain a registered agent with a physical address in that state. All our domestic packages include registered agent service for the first year.

Most domestic formations complete within 24 business hours after we receive all required information and payment. Wyoming, New Mexico, and Florida are typically the fastest. Delaware standard processing is 1–2 business days; expedited same-day processing is available.

An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is a federal tax ID number issued by the IRS. You need one to open a US business bank account, hire employees, and file federal taxes. Our Professional and International packages include EIN application assistance. Single-member LLCs owned by non-US persons require additional steps.

Offshore Formations

Yes. Forming an offshore company is entirely legal for US citizens and residents. However, US persons may have IRS reporting obligations (FBAR, Form 5471, Form 8938, etc.) depending on the structure and whether the company holds foreign financial accounts. We strongly recommend consulting a qualified international tax attorney.

An IBC is a type of offshore corporation designed for international business. It typically pays zero tax on foreign-source income, offers strong privacy protections, and has minimal compliance requirements. Belize, Seychelles, and BVI are popular IBC jurisdictions.

Nevis LLC is widely regarded as the gold standard for asset protection. Creditors must post a bond equal to the full value of the claim before even filing suit in Nevis — making litigation economically impractical in most cases. Panama and BVI also offer strong protections.

Yes. Our International package includes bank account introduction services. We work with correspondent banking partners in multiple jurisdictions. Banking success depends on your business activity, personal background, and the jurisdiction. We facilitate introductions only — account approval is at the discretion of the financial institution.

No. All formations are completed remotely. You never need to travel to Belize, Nevis, Seychelles, Panama, Marshall Islands, or BVI. All documents are prepared and filed electronically.

US persons with offshore companies may need to file: FBAR (FinCEN 114) if foreign accounts exceed $10,000; Form 5471 for controlled foreign corporations; Form 8858 for foreign disregarded entities; Form 8938 for FATCA reporting. Penalties for non-compliance can be severe. Always consult a qualified CPA and international tax attorney.

Seychelles IBC is our most affordable option, starting at $849 all-inclusive with 24-hour formation. Annual renewal costs are also the lowest at approximately $700/yr.

Pricing & Payment

Our all-inclusive offshore packages include: government filing fees, registered agent service for the first year, all formation documents, nominee services (where applicable), and courier delivery of original documents. Annual renewal packages cover registered agent renewal and government fees.

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), ACH bank transfer, and wire transfer for larger orders. Cryptocurrency payments are available on select packages — contact us for details.

We offer a full refund if we are unable to complete your formation. Once filing has been submitted to the government authority, refunds are not available as government fees are non-refundable. If you have concerns, contact us before your order is submitted.

📅

Annual Compliance

Most offshore jurisdictions require an annual renewal fee and registered agent service. There are no public financial statements, no audit requirements, and no local tax filings for foreign-source income. Our annual compliance plans cover registered agent renewal, government fees, and compliance reminders.

Failure to pay annual government fees and registered agent fees will result in your company being struck off the register (dissolved). Reinstatement is possible in most jurisdictions but involves additional fees and paperwork. We send renewal reminders 90, 60, and 30 days before your anniversary date.

Requirements vary by state. Wyoming requires an annual report with a $60 fee. Delaware requires an annual franchise tax. New Mexico has no annual report requirement. Florida requires an annual report. We include registered agent service and compliance reminders in all domestic packages.

Important: NestEgg.Global is a document preparation service, not a law firm. We do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice. US persons forming foreign entities may have IRS reporting obligations. Always consult a qualified attorney and CPA.
