Iam from Central America, Iam thinking of getting a company formed in Europe to be able to access top notch bredit card processors like Braintree, Square, or Stripe. Why? I want to launch a legitimate business and also need a bank account to recieve sepa transfers. Then ultimately transfer those (somehow) by payoneer or swift to my home country. Even though its a legit business i dont want to go for Atlas from stripe.
What do I need for this?
a.) Going down the path of getting an Estonia company with e residency the problem is that stripe doesnt reconogize this, and iam left with small processors that charge you minumm commitments, and a bank account in Estonia will charge you monthly just because you have an e residency. Plus I think stripe still wont event setup the account if iam not a citizen of their supported country. After all of this I cant understand how to make return taxes .
b.) Getting a Cryprus company, and then try to get a bank account but banks dont say if they allow non us/eu residents as the owners of the company and Cyprus companies are a lot costly then an estonia one. Again I dont know about the tax returns, i dont want to get into trouble here.
Iam lost, there MUST be a way to simplify this taking into consideration my non us/eu resident and not get ripped off with maintenance fees because of this (some smaller services charge $100/month... or even now 2 checkout is charging 6% for processing ccs that ridiculous for a legit consulting business).
