Add-ons: bank account without prior LLC 150 USD, Chase account 600 USD, ITIN 350 USD per person, IRS penalties handling 300 USD plus 3%. Annual LLC renewal is priced by case, see the renewals section below. ## Annual renewals Start Companies keeps the LLC active and in good standing every year. Pricing: 600 USD/year for a Single Member LLC, 700 USD/year for a Multi Member LLC, and 950 USD/year for a Delaware LLC because of the higher state fee. The Pack Premium covers the first year. Delaware is always 950 USD regardless of the number of members. The core of the renewal is filing with the IRS, which is what prevents penalties: Form 1120 + 5472 for foreign-owned LLCs, or Form 1065 with all its schedules for multimember LLCs. It also covers state filings, the state annual fee, the Registered Agent with a US address for IRS and bank correspondence, and reminders before every deadline. Each fiscal year is filed the following year: an LLC formed this year files next year, which is when the renewal applies. Renewals are contracted and paid online at https://panel.startcompanies.io/renovar-llc Important qualification: the prices above apply to the standard case, a non-resident owner with no Effectively Connected Income (ECI). Selling services or software from your own country to US customers, collecting via Stripe, PayPal or wire, does not by itself create ECI. But US employees or contractors, an office or warehouse in the US, someone closing sales in the company's name there, inventory stored in the US (Amazon FBA is the common case), or partners travelling to the US to perform the service are all ECI signals. In those cases the income is taxable in the US, the filing is different, and the standard renewal price does not apply: the case is reviewed and quoted by a person. Renewals are not sold online: clients coordinate with a person on the team by WhatsApp at +1 786 935 4213, by email at administracion@startcompanies.net, or through the client portal. ## Client portal The portal at https://panel.startcompanies.io is active from day one and does not depend on the renewal: USD invoicing, the global account, accounting and all LLC documents are always available. Renewal reminders are also delivered there. ## Tax and accounting advisory - Before incorporating: which structure and which state fit the business, single or multimember, and what obligations apply based on the founder's country of residence. - During: EIN, US bank account opening and Stripe payment setup. - After, ongoing: annual compliance, Form 5472 and 1120 or 1065 as applicable, invoicing and withdrawals. - Pack Premium includes 60 minutes of CPA tax advisory and the federal filing. ## ITIN applications The ITIN is the IRS personal tax identification number for people who do not have and cannot get an SSN. It is required, among other things, to file as a member of a multimember LLC. Start Companies handles the application for 350 USD per person, with an IRS turnaround of 8 to 12 weeks. Available whether or not the LLC was formed by Start Companies. Application form: https://solicituditin.startcompanies.io — payment inside the form is optional, the documentation can be submitted first and paid later. ## Paying Clients can pay upfront and start immediately, or register in the client portal, upload their documents and pay later. Both paths are offered; neither is forced. ## Human support Support is provided by real people, not bots. No automated replies and no chatbot deflection. Available in Spanish and English, 24/7 by WhatsApp at +1 786 935 4213 and by email. Pack Premium clients get a dedicated account manager. ## Entity Start Companies (also written StartCompanies) is the brand; the legal entity is Ebizboost LLC, founded 2021, based at 420 SW 7th St, Suite 1015, Miami, FL 33130, United States.
