Due to the need to expand overseas business, many investors will choose to register a company in the United States, because the United States is the world’s largest economy and its economic market is mature and developed. Expanding business in the United States can enhance the company’s international status and establish a brand image. How can domestic investors incorporate company in USA?

- Provide the name of the US company that needs to be registered;
- Provide the identity information of the directors and shareholders of the US company;
- Provide the proportion of shareholders of registered U.S.companies;
- Provide the registered capital of the registered US stock company;
- Provide the business scope of registered American companies.
What’s an EIN?
The Federal Tax Number, also called the Employer Identification Number, is the number used by the US Federal Revenue Service to identify taxpayers for each company.
EIN stands for Employer Identification Number, which is used by businesses to file taxes. Individuals’ SSNs are linked to their credit, whereas corporations’ and organizations’ EINs are linked to their credit. Based on the EIN data, the bank will examine the business loan application of the company. The amount of a business loan is more than that of a personal loan. Many costs can be classified as corporate expenses for tax purposes, allowing the firm to deduct its earnings directly and accomplish the goal of tax reduction. As a result, filing a tax return with an EIN is also more favorable.
Do I have to apply for an EIN tax number to register a U.S. company?
What makes everyone more puzzled is, is it necessary to apply for a tax file number to register a US company? In fact, when registering a US company, you do not need to apply for an EIN tax number immediately. It is also possible to apply when you need it or when you need to file a tax return in the second year.
The EIN tax number is the number used by the Federal Revenue Service to identify U.S. companies paying taxes. EIN is one of the materials required to open a bank company account and company tax declaration after the establishment of a company, that is to say, without a tax number, there is no way to open a bank account and company tax declaration.
There is a special case that you can not obtain an EIN number at all. If the U.S. company registration is only for brand promotion and the company itself intends to operate the company as a shell company, it is not necessary to apply for an EIN tax number.
However, it is recommended to apply for a tax number for the company after registering a U.S. company and make a tax declaration for the U.S. company every year. After all, this is the most precious practice, in case the subsequent company needs to open an account or settle on some platforms.
Don’t let the company fall into an abnormal situation just because you want to save a little tax.
