Most Providers Start With Paperwork.
We Start With Whether You Need It.
Foreign vs. U.S. entity is not a preference. It is a constraint based on your marketplace, operational footprint, and tax exposure. We help you determine the correct lane first, then build a verification-ready setup that holds up across platforms and banking.
Why Most Non-Resident Setups Fail
You can form a U.S. entity in 48 hours. Getting it verified, banked, and compliant across marketplaces takes months. Here is what goes wrong when the setup is done in the wrong order.
Verification Rejections
TikTok Shop, Amazon, and Stripe run automated checks across entity, EIN, and IRS filings. One mismatch between your PBR, W-9 signer, and operating agreement triggers a rejection loop.
Banking Denials
U.S. banks flag foreign-owned entities with incomplete KYC signals. The entity exists on paper but cannot open an account because the ownership and control profile does not align.
Hidden Tax Exposure
A U.S. SMLLC owned by a foreign individual is a disregarded entity for U.S. tax purposes. Without proper structuring, you may owe taxes in the U.S. and your home country on the same income.
Costly Re-Applications
Each failed platform application burns time and triggers review flags. Some sellers spend 3 to 6 months stuck in re-application cycles that could have been avoided with the correct setup sequence.
Five Reasons Clients Choose NCP
You are not paying for paperwork. You are paying for a correct sequence that avoids rework, re-applications, and double taxation.
We Start With Lane Clarity, Not Paperwork
Most providers start with "form an LLC." We start with what is possible. We help you decide whether you can sell into the U.S. through a foreign entity or whether a U.S. structure is necessary based on your marketplace rules, operational footprint, and tax exposure.
We Build a Coherent Profile That Platforms Accept
Verification usually fails because the setup tells conflicting stories. We align your signals so that every automated profile check passes on the first attempt. Entity, EIN, and IRS posture alignment. Ownership and role coherence (UBO vs. representative). Payout rails and bank KYC consistency. Address story consistency across systems.

"Meeting Scott felt like finding an oasis after years lost in the desert of U.S. tax and retirement rules. Living abroad for two decades, I had definitions but no strategy, until Scott's session. He asked first-principle questions, uncovered my real goals, and turned months of confusion into a clear, actionable plan. Scott went deeper than any advisor I've met, prepping before the call and following up after."
"Scott has in-depth knowledge of US taxation. His advice gave me a clearer picture of my options regarding company structure and tax implications."
