Seychelles Holding + Delaware LLC. Possible?

[OffshoreExpat]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post and i'm very excited to join this community since i've found a lot of good and helpful threats already, and i hope along the way i can contribute back.

My question is if it is possible to create a Delaware LLC owned by a Seychelles holding?

I already created one Delaware LLC under my own name with IncFile, however i tested trying to create a new one and set the owner as company and it only gives me the option to put another USA company as owner but not a foreign one, so i don't know if this is a problem of IncFile alone or in general is not possible to do that.

In case it is possible, please let me know also if you know a good company/website/agent that offers this service for setting both the Delaware llc and the Seychelles holding.

Thanks.

It is possible for a Seychelles company to own a Delaware LLC. This sounds like a limitation with IncFile.

Yes it is definitely possible to create a Delaware LLC owned by a Seychelles Company. As @Sols says it will be a limitation with the online order form of IncFile.

Out of curiosity, would it be possible to get a US bank account for such company?

Thank you @Sols and @James Turner .
@mange38, I think it is difficult (but not impossible i guess) for the Seychelles company to have a US bank account, that's why i would like to use a Delaware LLC as intermediary for the business operations and pass the remaining profits to the Seychelles bank account not necessarily a US bank account.

The simple answer is... No

You can create a Seychelles Company which banks itself offshore and which owns the shares of the Delaware LLC which also banks itself. Funds can be paid up to the Seychelles Company from the Delaware one, but neither company will be able to bank in the US. Banking is possible for both Delaware Companies, albeit limited options exist for anything related to the US and the Seychelles Company has a number of banking options.

@lory You really need to learn about Google.

lHello @lory . Inc file is a company that helps you creates LLC in the USA. It is very simple and a lot cheaper that other services, however it has its limitations, as you can see in my case.

can't you simply call them by phone ask them to help you get this setup or send you to someone that know the laws in the US for LLC's ? if not, I would stick to an agent you can get real help from.
