An LLC for digital nomads: one U.S. company, any country

An LLC for digital nomads is a U.S. company that stays put while you move. It has a fixed U.S. address, signs your client contracts and holds the business accounts, so your work doesn't depend on which country you're in this month. With EXNNA you form it in New Mexico (NM), a U.S. state, online in about two minutes, for $200 with State fees included.

Why do digital nomads form a U.S. LLC?

Because clients pay companies, and a company needs a home that doesn't change every visa run.

• A stable legal home. The LLC lives in New Mexico, whatever your itinerary.
• Contracts in the company's name. Clients sign with a U.S. business, not with a person whose address keeps changing.
• Dollar invoicing. Many clients and platforms pay U.S. companies in dollars without friction.
• Separation. Business money sits in the company's accounts, apart from your personal ones.

Where and how you pay tax depends on where you live and what the LLC does, not on the State where you form it.

Can you form an LLC for digital nomads without a home address?

Yes. The order asks for a company name, two backup names, the number of members and an email. Member details are optional and no ID documents are needed. The company's official address is our registered agent's address in New Mexico, included for the first 12 months. That's also where official mail goes, and basic mail, 3 letters a year, is scanned to your dashboard. More in a U.S. business address for non-residents.

Nomads from Brazil and Argentina form theirs exactly the same way.

What does an LLC for digital nomads need to get paid?

Three things, in this order:

1. The LLC itself. Articles of Organization, the filing that creates it, and an Operating Agreement in PDF and editable DOCX.
2. An EIN. The company's tax ID with the IRS, which banks and payment providers ask for. You can get it without an SSN: see how to get an EIN without an SSN. EXNNA applies for $50 with your formation.
3. A business account. See opening a U.S. bank account for a non-resident LLC. Each provider runs its own checks and decides.

Which nomad businesses use a U.S. LLC?

Running a store from the road? See the LLC for dropshipping guide. Working for clients? The LLC for freelancers covers contracts and payouts.

Is your name on the public record?

No. New Mexico's Articles of Organization don't have to list owners or managers. EXNNA signs as organizer and our registered agent appears on the record, so your name isn't on any State filing. See how an anonymous LLC works.

How do you form an LLC for digital nomads?

1. Enter the company name, two backups, the number of members and an email.
2. Sign the service agreement online.
3. Pay the total in U.S. dollars or your local currency, where available, by card, online.
4. Follow each step in your dashboard. The State usually approves in 1–3 business days.

Time zones don't matter: everything is online and your documents are ready to download the moment the LLC is formed.

What does it cost to keep?

A New Mexico LLC files no annual report and pays no annual State fee. It only needs a registered agent: included for 12 months, then $99 a year, only if you renew. See our pricing or form your LLC now.
