Open a US company from anywhere
LaunchDesk
We form your US company, get your EIN and operating agreement, set up a mailing address, and walk your bank, Stripe and PayPal applications through to approval. Typical turnaround is 5 to 14 business days, depending on bank requirements and your documents.
Why this exists
Founders in our markets lose months to this. The formation itself is the easy part; the bank account, the EIN and the payment processor are where applications stall for people without a US footprint. We have run this for founders across our programs often enough to know which order to do it in and what each institution asks for.

How it works
- 01
Pick the entity and state
We take your business model and where your customers are, and set up the entity that fits rather than defaulting to one.
- 02
Formation and EIN
Filing, operating agreement and the EIN application, handled with the paperwork prepared on your behalf.
- 03
Address and mail
A US mailing address and virtual mailbox so your filings, cards and bank mail have somewhere real to go.
- 04
Banking and payments
We prepare and shepherd the bank application, then Stripe and PayPal, which is where most non-US founders get stuck.
