A US Delaware LLC or C-Corp unlocks Stripe payments, Mercury banking, AWS credits, and US customers — no SSN required, no US address needed, no plane ticket. Lovie forms your US entity from anywhere in the world in one conversation.
The world's best business address is a Delaware filing.
Building a global company but stuck outside the US financial system.
The problem
Stripe, PayPal, and Braintree reject non-US entities — you lose customers the moment they try to pay
Stripe Atlas charges $500 upfront, requires a US phone number, and gives no EIN guidance for foreign nationals
US accelerators (YC, Techstars) require a Delaware C-Corp — international founders get screened out before the application is read
US enterprise clients are often prohibited by policy from paying non-US vendors
EIN for foreign nationals requires Form SS-4 by fax — a process that takes 4–8 weeks without knowing the right approach
How Lovie solves it
$29/mo — US Delaware LLC or C-Corp, EIN, registered agent, and US address. No SSN required
Lovie guides foreign nationals through Form SS-4 — the right method, not the one that takes 8 weeks
Open a Mercury or Relay business bank account remotely — US dollars, US routing number
Accept Stripe payments, qualify for AWS Activate, apply to YC or Techstars as a US entity
Lovie is your registered agent and US address — no office rental, no US co-founder needed
The US company international founders actually need.
No SSN. No US Address. No Problem.
Lovie handles EIN applications for foreign nationals via Form SS-4 — the correct method, formed entirely remotely.
Unlocks the US Financial System
One Delaware filing opens Stripe, Mercury, AWS Activate credits, US accelerators, and US enterprise customers.
One Price, No Hidden International Fees
$29/mo covers formation, EIN for foreign nationals, registered agent, mail, and compliance. No extra charges for international processing.
US Address Included
Lovie is your registered agent and provides a Delaware address — no office rental, no US nominee required.
Questions international founders actually ask.
Can I form a US company if I'm not a US citizen or resident?
Yes. There's no citizenship or residency requirement. Founders from Nigeria, India, Brazil, the UK, and every other country form Delaware entities regularly. No US address, phone number, or SSN required.
Do I need an SSN to get an EIN?
No — foreign nationals use Form SS-4 by fax or mail. Lovie handles this process using the method that avoids the standard 4–8 week wait.
Delaware LLC or C-Corp — which is right for me?
If you plan to raise US venture capital or apply to YC, you need a Delaware C-Corp. For a bootstrapped or revenue-generating business, a Delaware LLC is simpler. Lovie asks about your goals and recommends the right one.
Can I open a US bank account without visiting the US?
Yes. Mercury and Relay both offer remote account opening for US-formed entities owned by non-US founders. Lovie provides the EIN and formation documents you'll need.
Will Stripe work for my US company if I'm based abroad?
Yes. A US entity with a US EIN can open a Stripe account and accept payments globally — including from US customers who couldn't pay a foreign entity before.
How is Lovie different from Stripe Atlas for international founders?
Stripe Atlas charges $500 upfront, requires a US phone number, and adds $100/yr for registered agent after year one. Lovie is $29/mo, requires no US phone number, handles EIN for foreign nationals, and includes ongoing registered agent and compliance.
Do I need a US address?
Every US LLC and C-Corp requires a registered agent with a US address — it's a legal requirement. Lovie is your registered agent and provides a Delaware address. You never need to rent an office.
Does having a US company mean I pay US taxes?
A US LLC owned entirely by non-US persons with no US-sourced income is generally not subject to US federal income tax. A C-Corp is subject to US corporate tax on US-sourced income. Consult an international CPA for your specific situation.
