LLC for Digital Nomads
Start an LLC with an Attorney and Access U.S. Banks and Payment Providers from Anywhere in the World
Be Careful Where You Form Your Company
You’re traveling the world, but you want to access the U.S. markets. The problem is you don’t have a business address in the U.S., which most financial services now require. This makes things difficult. Your business won’t be able to open a bank, payment processor, or Amazon Seller account.
Banks and payment processors now require digital nomads to have a physical, verifiable business address in the United States. Not a P.O. box. Not a virtual mailbox. They will ask for proof of address documents in the form of a lease agreement or utility bill. If you can’t provide these, your account will be rejected or suspended.
Most cheap, low-quality company formation services won’t tell you this. They will file your company, but won’t provide any proof of address documents. This means you’re stuck with a company that can’t open the accounts it needs to operate. You’ll spend more time and money trying to fix it.
These services also provide your business with the same low-quality address as thousands of businesses. When too many companies share one address, financial services start flagging it as high-risk. It also gets used by scammers and becomes a fraud risk, giving your business a bad look to customers.
But it’s not your fault. How would you know? Low-quality LLC formation services won’t tell you this. So we’re exposing these services and showing digital nomads how to form a Wyoming LLC or corporation correctly with a real, physical U.S. office address to open e-commerce and payment processor accounts.
These are real search results from Google for addresses that low-quality formation services use to form your company. This is what potential customers will see when they do a background search on your business! Check for yourself…
What Makes Start in Wyoming Better for Nomads?
Start in Wyoming owns the buildings where we form your business. That means we can be your base in the United States even if you change your location. We can also provide proof of address documents, including a professional office lease and the option for a utility bill in your business’s name.
Our Complete Formations are managed by Wyoming attorney Alex Freeburg, the managing attorney at Freeburg Law. He has practiced law in Wyoming for over 12 years. This ensures your company is set up legally and correctly for your needs in the U.S. We also separate the registered agent and business address to avoid complications with services that reject registered agent addresses.
We don’t resell another company’s address. You’re not getting an address that’s shared with thousands of other businesses. Instead, you’re forming a company at a working office building staffed by real people with experience and reputation.
Verify Important Business Accounts
Start in Wyoming is an official partner of Mercury and Relay. We can assist you with onboarding successfully, provided you meet the requirements. The office may be suitable for other accounts, but we can’t guarantee verification.

Your company is ready to submit the EIN and lease agreement or utility bill (if you need it) to your bank, payment processor, or e-commerce platform. If any questions arise, we will help troubleshoot and provide additional documentation.
There’s No Such Thing As An "Expedited EIN"
If you have an SSN or ITIN, you can apply for an EIN through the IRS online portal. The IRS will issue an EIN immediately. Our team is happy to help you with this process.
If you don’t have an SSN or ITIN, you must mail or fax a form to the IRS. Our team will do this form for you and fax it to the IRS, as we have found this to be the quickest method. The IRS is notoriously slow, so this can take several weeks. Sometimes the IRS issues the EIN in two weeks, but that’s a best-case scenario.
Some services will try to charge you more for an “expedited EIN”. There’s no such thing as an expedited EIN. These services are faxing the EIN just like us. The only difference is that they are calling the IRS, hoping that your EIN gets returned quickly to make more money from you. If we don’t hear from the IRS after two weeks, we will also call them until the EIN is sent. The same service, without being upsold.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a U.S. citizen or resident to open an LLC?
No, we form Wyoming LLCs for non-residents, digital nomads, and anyone that wants to access the benefits Wyoming has to offer. There’s no requirement to be a U.S. citizen.
What documents do I need to start?
The only information we need from you is basic contact information and the name of your company. We do not share this information and ensure your personal information remains anonymous from the public and the state. We require a scanned copy of your passport for the Complete Formation. We do this securely and never store this information.
How do I open a bank account?
The Complete Formation provides you with the address and documentation to open a business bank account. We recommend that you open several accounts to minimize the risk of relying on one.

Yes, when you purchase our registered agent service it will give you the option to change from another provider. We will then file the necessary form with the Secretary of State to change your registered agent to us.
