Business formation & incorporation options
Experience seamless and affordable business formation with North Filings — built for founders outside the US.
Overview
Choosing how to incorporate your US business is one of the most consequential decisions a non-US founder makes. The right entity affects your taxes, fundraising options, hiring flexibility, and personal liability — and getting it wrong can cost months of cleanup.
Choosing how to incorporate your US business is one of the most consequential decisions a non-US founder makes. The right entity affects your taxes, fundraising options, hiring flexibility, and personal liability — and getting it wrong can cost months of cleanup.
North Filings exists to make this decision simple. We help thousands of founders incorporate a Delaware C-Corp or form a Wyoming LLC online — without an SSN, US address, or trip to a lawyer.
Delaware C-Corp
The Delaware C-Corp is the default for venture-backed startups. Investors expect it, employee stock options are well understood, and Delaware's Court of Chancery has decades of business case law.
If you plan to raise from US investors, accelerators, or YC, this is almost always the right structure.
Wyoming LLC
A Wyoming LLC is lower-cost, lower-maintenance, and better for solo operators, agencies, e-commerce, and SaaS businesses that won't raise venture capital.
It offers strong privacy protections and a flat $60 annual report fee — far cheaper than Delaware's franchise tax.
