American Inc. (Corporation)

The legal form of the U.S. Corporation (Inc) is a legal entity with its own legal personality in the form of a capital company.

The company’s capital is provided by shareholders (stockholders).

Unlike a German stock corporation, there is no requirement to pay in nominal capital. Although the corporation is established with authorized capital (so-called “Authorized Capital”), which is divided into a certain number of authorized shares (“Authorized Shares”), this capital cannot be demanded from the shareholders.

The Authorized Capital simply means that the company is permitted and authorized to issue Authorized Shares to investors, stakeholders, and other third parties (known as “capitalization”). In principle, the company is only required to sell shares at their calculated value.

We establish your corporation in all 50 U.S. states at a fixed total price, including the state incorporation fee, the annual fee for the Registered Agent, and the Registered Agent’s incorporation fee.

This means that the listed prices per state are the final costs for incorporation. Any additional services we offer are purely optional.

Additional add-ons can be found below this text under “You might also be interested in.”

Unlike many other corporate structures, a U.S. LLC does not require a “Registered Office” but only a “Registered Agent.”

However, you can book one of 50 different U.S. office addresses along with your incorporation, billed monthly.

The monthly fee includes mail reception with email notifications, mail forwarding, and/or a scanning service.

Opening a U.S. bank account can be booked as an optional service. However, you will likely need to apply for a U.S. tax identification number from the IRS beforehand.
