Home/US incorporation
Practice · US incorporation

Your US company, designed from Mexico.

We set up your LLC or C-Corp and design the structure between your Mexican and US operations: who invoices, who hires and how the two entities connect. In Spanish or English, at fixed fees in pesos.

Who this is for · Folio 01

Three reasons to cross the border.

Investment

Startups raising capital

Funds usually ask for a Delaware C-Corp. We set it up and connect it with your operation in Mexico.

Sales

Companies selling into the US

American clients often prefer contracting and paying a local entity. An LLC solves the commercial relationship.

Remote

Founders based in Mexico

You do not need to relocate to incorporate; we do it remotely and explain every obligation the entity creates.

To decide · Folio 04

The pieces on the binational board.

C-Corp

The vehicle venture capital funds ask for, almost always in Delaware, for its corporate predictability.

LLC

Flexible and simple to operate and invoice. In a structure with Mexico it can elect pass through treatment (check the box).

S.A. de C.V.

For US tax purposes it is always treated as a corporation; that detail shapes part of the structure.

1 structure

US parent with a Mexican subsidiary, or the other way around: there is no single answer. It depends on where the clients, the team and the investment sit.

Frequently asked questions · Folio 06

What founders ask before crossing.

LLC or C-Corp?+

If you will raise from funds, C-Corp, almost always in Delaware. If you need to invoice and operate with US clients, an LLC is usually enough and simpler to maintain. We decide with your case, not with a general rule.

Do I need a visa or to live in the US?+

Not to incorporate the entity or to be a partner or shareholder. Physically working in the United States is a separate immigration matter; if it applies to your plan, we tell you plainly.

Is Delaware always the answer?+

It is the standard for C-Corps with investors, for its specialized court and predictability. For an operating LLC, sometimes the state where you actually operate or sell makes more sense. We give you the comparison with numbers.

How does it connect with my Mexican company?+

With the right structure (parent, subsidiary or sisters) and intercompany contracts defining who provides what and who charges. The S.A. de C.V. is treated as a corporation for US tax purposes and the S. de R.L. can elect pass through treatment; that detail is decided before incorporating.

What about taxes?+

Fine tax design is coordinated with your accountant or tax advisor in each country; we leave the legal structure and the contracts ready for that analysis.

How much does it cost and what does it include?+

From $20,000 MXN plus VAT for the incorporation and the internal documents. State and registered agent costs are third party expenses, presented separately and in writing.

Shall we build your US side?

Tell us where your clients and your investment sit. We reply with the suggested vehicle, the state and the fee in writing, within 24 hours.
