Payment of annual fee and maintenance of the company
During January, you will receive the invoice to comply with the payment of the annual fee or maintenance of US companies.
Expenses and services included in the annual fee:
- Annual payment fee to the corporate affairs registry.
- Registered agent and registered office service.
- Annual consultation: we invite you to schedule the free annual call to review the company’s structure or clarify any doubts about it. You can schedule a call with me here. Additional consultations will be billed per hour.
Tax returns
As you are aware, not all companies are required to pay taxes in the United States; however, the vast majority must at least comply with the filing of Form 5472 with the IRS.
It is essential to engage the services of a U.S. accountant (CPA) for the preparation of the relevant forms and tax filings.
Deadline: April 15. If an extension is requested, the deadline will be September 15 for companies taxed as partnerships, and October 15 for all other entities.
Companies with director services
If we currently provide director services to your company, it is our responsibility to ensure compliance with applicable regulations and the completion of all mandatory filings. For this reason, in addition to offering our accounting liaison service, we kindly ask you to confirm how you plan to proceed with the filing before April 15.
If we will not be managing the process, please send us a copy of the filing once it has been completed.
Please contact Danilo Alano at danilo.alano@untitled-slc.com to:
- Receive the contact details of a CPA; or
- Request our accounting liaison service, which includes end-to-end support throughout the process, acting as a point of contact to ensure the filing is properly completed. Our fee for this service is US$ 500, plus the accountant’s fees. Please confirm your interest by April 10.
Compliance update
