Overview

Understanding Your
Industry's Tax Landscape

Entering the US market is one of the most significant steps a foreign business can take — and one of the most complex from a tax and legal perspective. The United States has one of the most demanding compliance environments in the world, with federal, state, and local obligations that vary by business type, structure, and activity. Our team specializes in guiding European and international businesses through every step of their US entry, communicating fluently in English, Polish, and Ukrainian.

Common Challenges

Tax & Financial Challenges
Foreign & International Companies Businesses Face

These are the issues we see most often — and the ones that cost the most when handled incorrectly. Click any item to read more.

Choosing the Right US Legal Entity+
LLC, C-corporation, branch office, or representative office — each structure has different tax treatment, liability implications, and investor compatibility. The wrong choice creates years of compliance complexity and unnecessary tax cost.
EIN Application for Foreign Entities+
Every US business entity needs an Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the IRS. Foreign entities cannot use the online application and must file by mail or fax, which requires specific documentation and can take 4–8 weeks without professional guidance.
FBAR & FATCA — Foreign Account Reporting+
Any US person or entity with foreign financial accounts exceeding $10,000 must file FinCEN Form 114 (FBAR) annually. Penalties for non-compliance start at $10,000 per violation and can reach $100,000 for willful violations.
Transfer Pricing & Intercompany Transactions+
Transactions between a foreign parent and its US subsidiary must be priced at arm's length under IRC Section 482. Failing to maintain proper transfer pricing documentation exposes the US entity to income reallocation by the IRS and significant penalties.
State Registration & Foreign Qualification+
Operating in a US state without proper registration exposes the company to back taxes, penalties, and the inability to enforce contracts in that state.
US Tax Treaty Analysis+
The US has tax treaties with dozens of countries that can reduce withholding taxes and eliminate double taxation. Many foreign companies fail to claim treaty benefits they are entitled to — or claim them incorrectly.
