Business on Amazon and a Company in the U.S.
If you are looking for the largest marketplace in the world, Amazon is the place for you. The website has about 190 million visitors a month. Even if only a small number out of these people visit your product page, that is many times more than most small and medium-sized companies can expect.
In addition to volumes, Amazon also provides a solution to many logistics issues: if you wish you can use Amazon warehouses, and the latter will ensure the delivery of your goods in the U.S. and other countries of the world (Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA)).
It takes a couple of days to launch a seller’s profile on Amazon. It is also possible to work in the platform via foreign companies, but the American one is preferable for several reasons:
- You wish to enjoy better credibility;
- You plan to or are already selling items from a closed category;

Remote Registration of an LLC in the U.S. for Doing Business on Amazon
Both resident and domiciled persons can register a company in the United States. The owner can be either an individual or a legal entity.
LLC is a limited liability company. The authorized capital of such a company is not stipulated in the laws, but we recommend that it should be at least 1000 dollars. This approach will raise fewer questions from the banks and your future partners.
The peculiarity of LLC in the USA is that the owners’ data are in a closed register and they cannot be disclosed to the third parties.
In addition, the U.S. has not joined the CRS Standard by the OECD, and if you open an account with a U.S. bank, this information will not be communicated outside the United States.
The U.S. has a two-tiered tax system, the state level and the federal level. However, if you choose the right state and perform your main operations outside the country, your taxes can be greatly reduced or even zeroed out.
By the way, if Amazon is your agent in the U.S., and your company is registered, for example, in Delaware, then you can keep the status of a non-resident company and avoid paying taxes in the U.S.
Company registration is done remotely.
We also offer opening a local account right away. This service is available on a completely remote basis which saves a lot of your time and money on visas and flights.
With our assistance you can register a company with a bank account in the following states: Oregon, California, Nevada, Delaware, Florida and all other states.
