📌 Pinned Post: International Members with a U.S. LLC
If you’re not a U.S. citizen or resident and you own a U.S. LLC (often formed in Wyoming), here’s what to know.
Good news first
  • Wyoming doesn’t add extra rules for foreign owners
  • No Wyoming income tax
  • Simple annual state filing
The important part (federal)
Even if your LLC made $0:
  • You must file IRS Form 5472
  • Plus a pro forma Form 1120
  • Missing this can trigger a $25,000 penalty
Think of this as ownership reporting, not a tax bill.
You’ll also need
  • An EIN (no SSN required)
  • A U.S. bank account for Stripe or Skool
Taxes depend on activity
  • If you have U.S.-sourced income or U.S. business activity, a U.S. tax filing may apply
  • If not, reporting-only still applies
Your home country still matters Example: Australia
  • You usually report worldwide income there
  • The United States–Australia tax treaty helps prevent double tax
  • It does not remove U.S. filing requirements
Bottom line
  • Wyoming keeps things simple
  • The IRS cares about transparency
  • No income doesn’t mean no filing
  • This is about compliance, not tax avoidance
If you’re unsure how this applies to your situation, treat this as a heads-up, not a red flag. We can walk through specifics when needed if you join the Premium or VIP tiers.
