The real problem

Selling on Amazon USA as a non-resident is a coordination problem

You can register an LLC in a day and still be stuck. Amazon Seller Central wants a matching legal entity, a US bank account and a verifiable identity. Your EIN takes weeks. Your bank rejects the application. Meanwhile your first shipment sits in a warehouse in Shenzhen with no plan to reach a US fulfillment center on time.

Most founders stitch this together from four vendors who never talk to each other – a formation agent, an EIN service, a banking intermediary and a freight forwarder. Each hands off a document and disappears. Details fall through the gaps: the name on the bank doesn’t match Seller Central, the freight paperwork lists the wrong importer, payouts stall. One operator removes the gaps.

Why it works

Why found in the US for Amazon

The US LLC is the natural home for an Amazon USA business: it maps cleanly to Seller Central, unlocks USD payouts, and pairs with US freight and FBA prep.

EIN and Seller Central alignment

We form the LLC, obtain the EIN, and make sure the legal name, address and entity details match exactly what Amazon Seller Central verifies – the mismatch that stalls most non-resident accounts.

USD payouts via Mercury or Relay

US business banking built for founders, so Amazon disburses in USD to a real US account. Approval is always the bank’s own decision under its KYC/AML review – we prepare a complete, strong application.

Stripe US when you sell off-Amazon

Add a Shopify or D2C channel with Stripe US and USD settlement. Stripe approves under its own KYC/AML review; we structure the entity and documents so the application is as strong and complete as possible.

China→US freight in the same house

Sister service Latynex Logistics moves inventory by air and sea, handles customs and FBA prep, so your entity and your first shipment are planned together, not in silos.

Step by step

From formation to first FBA shipment

A single roadmap that ends with a live Seller Central account and inventory on the way – not a pile of disconnected documents.

01

Jurisdiction Plan

A 45–60 minute call with a human expert confirms the US LLC is right for you, sets the state, and maps costs and timeline. The €99 is credited toward your setup package.

02

Form the LLC & file for EIN

We register the LLC (state fee $50–300, billed separately) and file for the EIN. Total company setup typically completes in 1–4 weeks.

03

Open USD banking

We prepare and submit your Mercury or Relay application with complete documentation. Approval is the bank’s own decision under its KYC/AML review – we make the application as strong and complete as it can be.

04

Align Seller Central & payments

Register or match your Amazon Seller Central account to the entity, and set up Stripe US if you sell off-Amazon. Payout details point to your US account.

05

Plan the China→US shipment

Latynex Logistics arranges air or sea freight, customs clearance and FBA prep, so inventory reaches your US fulfillment center with the importer details correct from day one.

FAQ

Questions non-resident Amazon sellers ask

Can a non-resident own a US LLC and sell on Amazon USA?+

Yes. A US LLC can be owned by non-residents and is a common structure for Amazon USA sellers. We handle formation, EIN and the documentation Seller Central verifies, fully remotely.

Do you guarantee my Mercury, Relay or Stripe application is approved?+

No. Approval is always the bank’s or Stripe’s own decision under their KYC/AML review, and we cannot guarantee it. What we do is prepare a complete, correctly structured, strong application that gives you the best possible chance.

Do you provide tax or legal advice?+

No. We set up the company infrastructure and do not give tax or legal advice. Where tax or legal guidance is required, we work with qualified partners.

US LLC or Estonia OÜ for Amazon?+

For selling on Amazon USA and paying out in USD, the US LLC is usually the fit. Estonia OÜ suits EU-facing sellers. The €99 Jurisdiction Plan settles it for your specific case.

How long does the whole setup take?+

US LLC formation and EIN typically complete in 1–4 weeks. Banking and Seller Central alignment follow. Freight timing depends on your air or sea route from China.

Yes. Sister service Latynex Logistics moves goods from China by air and sea, clears customs and handles FBA prep – planned alongside your company setup, not as a separate scramble.
