What forming in New Hampshire commits you to
Formation is the cheap part. New Hampshire charges $100 to form an LLC and then expects an annual report of $100, due Annual, April 1. Add no personal income tax, a 7.5% corporate income tax and no state sales tax, and you have the real annual cost of a New Hampshire entity.

Is New Hampshire the right state for you?
New Hampshire has no personal income tax, which helps resident owners; for a non-resident with no New Hampshire operations it changes little at federal level. Register here if the business has New Hampshire customers, staff or inventory. The honest rule: form where the business actually operates. A New Hampshire entity run from another state usually has to register there too, and pays both sets of fees. For a non-US owner with no US operations, the choice comes down to annual cost, privacy and how the banks view the state.
We do not advertise or process government identifiers as a standalone service. The EIN is one step inside a formation engagement, applied for on your behalf with the IRS.

Pricing
Formation packages are quoted as one fixed fee that includes our work and the New Hampshire state fee, so you see the whole number before you say yes. Registered agent fees are passed through at cost. Bundles with bookkeeping and the first year's tax return are the most common choice for non-US owners, because the Form 5472 filing that follows formation is where most first-year penalties come from.
New Hampshire questions people ask first
Can a non-US resident form a New Hampshire LLC?
Yes. There is no residency or citizenship requirement. You need a registered agent with a New Hampshire address, an EIN (which we apply for without an SSN), and a plan for the annual filings that follow.
What does a New Hampshire LLC cost each year after formation?
An annual report of $100, due Annual, April 1, plus a registered agent (typically $50 to $150 a year) and the federal filings. $100
LLC or C-corp in New Hampshire?
An LLC is simpler and passes income through to the owner. A C-corp is what US investors expect and what Delaware is famous for. For a solo non-US founder with no investors, an LLC is usually the right start; we walk through the choice on the call.
Does forming in New Hampshire change my federal taxes?
No. State choice changes state fees and state tax, not federal treatment. A foreign-owned single-member LLC files Form 5472 with a pro forma 1120 every year in every state.
How long does New Hampshire formation take?
State processing times vary from a day to a few weeks; the EIN for a non-US owner can take a further two to six weeks by fax. We tell you the current timing on the call.
Can you also do the bookkeeping and tax return?
Yes, and most clients bundle them. One team means the formation, the books and the first return are consistent, and the compliance calendar is actually owned by someone.
