Legal Incorporation

Establish Your Corporation.

Protect your personal assets and establish total corporate authority. We handle the paperwork, the filing, and the compliance. You only pay mandatory state fees.

Exclusive service for United States residents
The Advantage

The Foundation of Commerce.

Operating as a sole proprietor exposes your personal assets to devastating legal liabilities. A Limited Liability Company (LLC) creates an impenetrable corporate veil, legitimizes your brand, and unlocks significant tax advantages.

View Filing Process

Asset Protection

The corporate veil ensures that in the event of litigation or business debt, your personal assets—such as your home or private accounts—remain strictly untouchable.

Zero Agency Fees

Legal firms charge hundreds of dollars simply to file paperwork. Because you are deploying your digital infrastructure with HostPanel, we waive all agency fees. You only pay what the state charges.

Tax Optimization

Avoid the double taxation inherent in C-Corporations. LLCs utilize "pass-through" taxation, meaning profits are only taxed once at your personal income level.

Bank & Merchant Access

An official LLC and EIN (Employer Identification Number) are mandatory to open a dedicated corporate bank account and process payments via Stripe or PayPal.

Inquiries

Understanding LLCs.

Is the service actually free?
Yes. Legal platforms (like LegalZoom) charge upwards of $149 just to file the paperwork on your behalf. We waive our agency processing fee entirely. You are only responsible for the mandatory filing fee charged by the state you are incorporating in.
What are State Filing Fees?
Every state in the US charges a fee to legally register a business. These are unavoidable mandatory fees paid to the government. For example, Wyoming charges $100, while Kentucky charges $100. We will show you the exact state fee before you finalize your order.
How long does the state take to approve my LLC?
Processing times are entirely dependent on the specific Secretary of State. Some states process applications electronically within 24 to 48 hours, while others may take up to 2 or 3 weeks. We file your documents the same business day we receive them.
Do I need a Registered Agent?
Yes, all 50 states legally require you to have a Registered Agent—a physical address available during business hours to accept legal mail. You can act as your own registered agent if you live in the state of formation, or you can purchase our 3rd-party Registered Agent service during checkout.
What is an EIN and do I need one?
An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is issued by the IRS. It is essentially a social security number for your business. You must have an EIN to open a US corporate bank account, hire employees, or set up Stripe/PayPal.
Do I need to be a US Citizen to form an LLC?
Our complimentary filing service is currently optimized and restricted to residents within the United States. International founders face significantly different compliance regulations and IRS tax requirements.
