Entity Formation and Business Registration Services

One of our busiest practice areas is Entity Formation and Business Registration Services.

As the rate of U.S. entrepreneurship continues to rise, combined with the current state of required disclosure and jurisdictional nexus as regulated by revenue departments throughout the U.S., our comprehensive services in this area addresses all of the tax and business issues required to get your company ready to do business anywhere in the U.S., under the proper legal structure.

The CPA Exchange consults with foreign individuals and businesses seeking to operate in the United States.

Our service is very unique in this area, because we provide comprehensive services. We consult with you to gain an understanding of your business operations and your goals; offer you the pros and cons of various entity choices and structures, and consult with you in regard to what jurisdiction your business should be domiciled.

The CPA Exchange forms business entities through our corporate agent, CSC, the most respected name in the business. We register your business in all jurisdictions, and for all applicable tax filings, and will even set you up with virtual offices through Regus, as required. And we handle the ongoing accounting and tax compliance for the businesses we set-up in the U.S, once they commence operations.

By way of comparison, many law firms offer entity formation services. But they often do not address the income tax ramifications related thereto; nor do they register the entity in all jurisdictions for all required business and tax attributes. But law firms are very beneficial in creating operating, corporate and related agreements to legally protect the parties and the assets of the entity. We refer our clients to many excellent law firms to accomplish this, once the parties themselves have agreed in principal as to what they want to do.

Our Fees

Most clients seeking to form a U.S. entity incur a fee of $1,295, plus our costs to our corporate agent, and the state where the entity is formed. Usually, the total is around $1,600 or $1,700. This includes the comprehensive registration services for the entity as described above.

Please contact us with your specific situation.

The CPA Exchange and Paul Weinberg streamlined our initiative in starting and operating a U.S. business.  Paul consulted with us in regards to our entity structure, taxation issues, and which state to incorporate in; formed the entity, handled all of the jurisdictional registrations required, and found us a virtual office arrangement. They provide ongoing corporate tax and business services. I highly recommend the services of The CPA Exchange if you are considering doing business in the United States.
