Rai Rai / US Access / US Company Formation
Form a US LLC from Germany (Non-Resident, No SSN)
German founders expanding to the US need a US entity before processors and customers take them seriously. Rai Rai handles LLC formation from Germany end to end — choosing the entity and state, getting an EIN without an SSN, registered agent, operating agreement, and the Form 5472 compliance for foreign owners — then moves you straight into US banking. Delivery is run by our team, so it's fast and predictable.

Can I do this from Germany without traveling to the US?
Yes. Rai Rai focuses on the path that lets non-resident founders in Germany complete us company formation remotely.
Do I need to travel to the US or have an SSN?
No. Non-residents can form a US company and obtain an EIN without a US Social Security Number and without traveling to the United States.
Which state should I incorporate in?
It depends on your goals. Wyoming is popular for low cost and privacy (member names aren't public), Delaware for venture-track startups raising from US investors, and New Mexico for the lowest-cost setup. We help you choose rather than defaulting everyone to one state.
What ongoing filings will I have?
A foreign-owned single-member US LLC generally must file Form 5472 with a pro-forma 1120 each year — missing it carries a $25,000 penalty — plus state annual reports. We map your full compliance path up front so nothing is a surprise.
How long does it take to form a US LLC?
The LLC itself is usually filed within a few business days; obtaining the EIN as a non-resident adds the rest, so plan on roughly 1–3 weeks end to end. Our team handles delivery, so it keeps moving instead of stalling on paperwork.
How much does it cost?
State filing fees run roughly $40–$500 (Wyoming is about $100), plus a registered agent (~$100/year) and our service fee. You get a clear, fixed scope up front — no surprise filings or hidden fees.
How does Rai Rai work — is it a SaaS tool?
No. We're an execution partner. We own the operational path from start to a live result and stay involved as your setup evolves.
