Step by Step

How to Form a US LLC

01

Choose a Business Name

Pick a unique name that ends with 'LLC' or 'Limited Liability Company'. We run a name availability check with the state to confirm it's available.

~ 5 minutes

02

Choose Your State

Delaware, Wyoming, and New Mexico are popular choices for their low fees and favorable laws. We can form your LLC in all 50 states.

We recommend Delaware or Wyoming for most founders.

03

Appoint a Registered Agent

A registered agent receives official legal and government documents on behalf of your LLC. Suits Finance includes registered agent service in every formation plan.

Included in all plans

04

File Articles of Organization

We prepare and submit your Articles of Organization to the Secretary of State. This is the official document that creates your LLC.

~ 1–3 business days

05

Obtain an EIN

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is your business's federal tax ID. You need it to open a bank account, hire employees, and file taxes.

Included in select plans

06

Draft an Operating Agreement

An operating agreement outlines how your LLC is run β€” ownership percentages, voting rights, and profit distribution. Not always required by law, but always recommended.
