Last time I checked, both Delaware and Nevada were tax-free up to $1M revenue. However, franchise tax depended on the amount of C-Corp shares (i.e. instead of paying $250 for an LLC one could end up paying $70k for a C-Corp). And for your personal taxes it depends on the agreement between the US and your home country. In the worst case you'd have to pay both if there is no agreement.

Not a lawyer but AFAIK: - if you've a foreign shareholder you need a C-corp (to be honest, you'd want a C-corp anyway, you can't reinvest profits in a LLC) - you need to account federal taxes @21% - you don't incorporate an S-corp, you need to have an LLC of a C-corp and then you file to become an S-corp, which basically gives you tax free dividends at the expense of not being able to reinvest profits

There are much better tax deals to be had outside the states if you're trying to elude (the legal one, not evade) your country's high taxation.

What type of professional would I need to talk to, to learn more about this? I've been looking at Stripe Atlas and Firstbase.io for options, but I want to talk to someone that can tell me what the best option for incorporating is.
