Good to know
Forming a Idaho LLC from abroad
Who can form a Idaho LLC
Anyone. Idaho 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 Idaho, which is part of every order with us.
How the filing works
A Idaho LLC comes into existence when the state accepts the Certificate 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 $103.50, passed on at cost.
What it costs each year
Every year Idaho asks for: Annual report, free. 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 Idaho
Idaho has a state income tax, but it applies to income connected to the state. A foreign-owned LLC with no office, staff or customers in Idaho 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.
