Are there any citizen or residency requirements in forming a business entity in the United States?
Generally, an individual does not need to be a United States citizen or resident to form a business entity, such as a corporation or an LLC, in the United States. However, the entity generally is required to have a registered agent in the state in which it is formed, and in the states in which it owns property and/or conducts business. Also, as a result of owning an interest in a United States corporation or LLC, a foreign individual may be required to file tax returns in the United States and pay certain taxes.
