US sales tax compliance for Indian-owned LLCs covers federal returns (Form 1120 + 5472), sales-tax nexus across 50 states, BOI, and Texas franchise tax. It is all handled for foreign-owned LLCs by US CPAs.
Foreign-owned LLCs have obligations most US sellers never think about. We track every one so nothing lapses.
The annual federal return for foreign-owned LLCs, required even with zero US tax due.
Beneficial Ownership Information report, required for all US LLCs. One-time, we file it.
A No-Tax-Due report under $1.23M revenue; full franchise filing above it. We handle both.
We monitor your sales across 50 states and register you where you cross economic-nexus thresholds.
State sales-tax registration at $99 each, only where you actually need it, no over-registering.
QuickBooks Online kept current with proper documentation, so an audit is a paperwork exercise, not a crisis.
We map your LLC, sales volume, and states to know exactly which filings apply to you.
Form 1120 + 5472 prepared and filed by US CPAs, on time, correctly, every year.
Texas franchise report and any nexus-state sales-tax filings handled on schedule.
We watch your nexus footprint and keep books clean so nothing surprises you at year end.
Under marketplace-facilitator laws, Amazon collects and remits sales tax on FBA orders in most states automatically. Sellers assume that means they're done. They're not.
You still cross income-tax nexus, still owe the federal return, and still must register where thresholds are crossed. The filings remain yours to make.

A foreign-owned single-member LLC must file Form 1120 with Form 5472 every year, even with zero US income. Miss it and the IRS penalty starts at $25,000. This is the single most common, most expensive mistake Indian sellers make. We make sure it never happens to you.
If your LLC has US-effectively-connected income (which Amazon FBA sales are), yes. Federal corporate rate is 21% on net profit. Most sellers actually pay less because of legitimate deductions.
When you cross a state's threshold (typically $100K sales or 200 transactions per year), you must collect and remit sales tax. Amazon collects on FBA for most states automatically, but YOU still need to file in nexus states.
Beneficial Ownership Information report filed with FinCEN. Required for all US LLCs. One-time filing, takes 30 minutes. We do it for $49 if you forgot to file it.
Only if your LLC made over $1.23M in gross revenue. Below that, you file a "No Tax Due Report" annually. Free. We handle it.
Foreign-owned single-member LLCs have a slightly higher audit rate than average. We keep clean books with QuickBooks Online and proper documentation, so an audit is a paperwork exercise, not a problem.
Annual federal Form 1120 + state filing: $499 if no employees. Sales tax registration per state: $99 each. Quarterly compliance check-ins: $99/quarter. Most clients spend under $1,500/year total on compliance.
Most sellers either over-register and burn money, or ignore it and build up risk. The right answer is narrower than both.
Amazon and Walmart collect and remit sales tax in every state with facilitator laws. That removes most collection burden, but some states still expect a registration once your stock sits there.
Inventory in a state is physical presence. We track where FBA places your units and flag only the states where a registration is genuinely required, nothing extra.
State registrations, the filing calendar, zero returns where required, and notices when a state writes to you. You get a clean file, not a shoebox of letters.
US CPAs handling your federal, state, and sales-tax filings on a flat fee, so the $25,000 letter never arrives.
