Good to know
Forming a Alaska LLC from abroad
Who can form a Alaska LLC
Anyone. Alaska does not ask members or managers of an LLC to be US citizens or residents, and you do not need to travel to the United States. What the state does require is a registered agent with a street address in Alaska, which is part of every order with us.
How the filing works
A Alaska LLC comes into existence when the state accepts the Articles of Organization. We prepare and file it for you within 48 hours of your payment. The state usually needs 1–2 weeks after that. The state filing fee is $250, passed on at cost.
What it costs each year
Every year Alaska asks for: Biennial report $100. We put the date in your compliance calendar and remind you ahead of time. With us, only the registered agent renews, at $45 a year.
Taxes in Alaska
Alaska has no state income tax on wages, which is one reason founders pick it. A foreign-owned LLC with no office, staff or customers in Alaska often has little or no state tax to pay; federal reporting to the IRS applies in every state. This is general information, not tax advice.
