Form a US LLC from MozambiqueStripe. Payoneer. EIN. 100% Remote.

Yes. Citizens and residents of Mozambique can legally own and operate a US LLC 100% remotely. The US has no citizenship or residency restrictions for LLC owners. No US visa, SSN, ITIN, or physical travel is required. You only need a valid Mozambique passport and proof of address to register.

Yes. Since Stripe does not support local accounts in Mozambique, forming a US LLC with a US EIN and US address is the standard setup. Together with a Payoneer Business USD account, this qualifies you for full US Stripe access. Entryly guarantees Stripe activation for every client.

Mercury Bank currently restricts checking accounts for Mozambique passport holders (Tier 2). To bypass this restriction, Entryly sets up a fully compliant Payoneer Business USD checking account as your primary US banking link, which integrates seamlessly with Stripe for payouts.

We offer three premier states: (1) Missouri is the fastest, taking 2-4 business days at a low cost. (2) Wyoming offers excellent privacy because member names are not published on the state registry. (3) New Mexico is the most cost-effective long-term, with a $0 state annual report fee and $35 annual renewal. Most founders in Mozambique choose Missouri for speed or New Mexico for low maintenance.

If your US LLC is owned by a single non-US resident and has no physical operations, offices, or employees in the US, its income is classified as "foreign-sourced". Under IRS rules, it is treated as a tax-transparent pass-through entity and is subject to 0% US corporate income tax. You are only required to file annual informational returns (Forms 5472 and a pro forma 1120). Mozambican residents must declare global income under local tax regulations (IRPS).

Yes. Mozambican passport holders can form a US LLC with Payoneer Business as the primary USD banking link. Mercury Bank is not available for Mozambican passport holders (Tier 2). Full Stripe US access is guaranteed through the US LLC. Payoneer supports MZN withdrawals to local Mozambican banks.

Your clients pay you in USD via Stripe, which pays out to your Payoneer Business account. From Payoneer, you can easily withdraw funds directly to your local bank account at Millennium Bim, BCI Moçambique in MZN or keep the funds in USD for international payments.

The setup takes 5-10 business days total: (1) LLC registration with the state (2-4 business days), (2) EIN registration with the IRS (typically 2-4 business days via our digital fax channel), and (3) Payoneer Business bank account setup and Stripe activation (1-2 business days). All documents are delivered digitally.
