Do you have any other questions?
Although it is possible for non-residents to incorporate a company in the U.S., certain restrictions apply to individuals from specific countries. These limitations exist due to U.S. sanctions, national security concerns, or other regulatory issues. As a result, individuals and businesses from these restricted countries may face difficulties when attempting to form a U.S.-based company. Therefore, it’s essential to verify whether your country of residence falls under these restrictions before moving forward with the incorporation process.
