For non-US residents who own a US LLC. Estimates whether your LLC owes US federal tax and what you must file regardless.
Non-Resident US LLC Tax Estimator
For non-US residents who form a US LLC (typically Wyoming or Delaware). This estimates whether your LLC owes US federal income tax — and what you must file regardless. Your home country still taxes you; this only covers US obligations.

Key notes for your scenario
- Online services delivered to US customers from outside the US typically do NOT create a US trade or business under current IRS guidance.
- Pure SaaS / digital products / consulting delivered remotely is generally not ECI.
- Single-member LLC (disregarded entity): Must file Form 5472 + pro-forma 1120 annually. Penalty for missing: $25,000.
What this calculator does NOT cover
- Your home-country tax (CFC, GILTI-equivalent, dividend repatriation, etc.).
- State income tax (most states only tax in-state activity — Wyoming/Delaware non-resident LLCs usually owe nothing).
- Withholding agent obligations (FDAP, 1042-S filings).
- Treaty positions — must be claimed on Form W-8BEN-E with the LLC's withholding agent.
- FIRPTA (real property), branch profits tax, dispositions.
This is the most error-prone area in non-resident LLC tax. If your numbers are non-trivial, hire a CPA who specializes in US international tax (Form 5472, ECI determinations) — ~$1,500-$3,000/yr is well-spent insurance.
