Tax Structure Overview

As a non-resident LLC owner, your Colorado LLC is typically treated as a disregarded entity for US federal income tax purposes, unless you elect to be taxed as a corporation. This means the LLC's income 'passes through' to you, and you're taxed at your individual income tax rate on your share of the profits. Colorado also has its own state income tax. Accurate bookkeeping and understanding tax treaties are vital.
