Tax & Compliance FAQs

Does my LLC need to file taxes if it has no revenue? ▾
Yes. Every foreign-owned US LLC must file Form 5472 + Pro-Forma 1120 annually — regardless of revenue. Even a dormant LLC with zero activity must file. The IRS penalty for missing this is $25,000. This is one of the most commonly missed requirements by international LLC owners.
What is the difference between Form 5472 and Form 1040-NR? ▾
Form 5472 is a business-level filing for the LLC itself (along with a Pro-Forma 1120). It reports transactions between the LLC and foreign owners. Form 1040-NR is a personal tax return for the individual non-resident owner, reporting their US-source income. Both may be required — and both are included in our Scale plan.
Do I need FBAR if I use Mercury or Wise? ▾
Yes, if your US accounts (including Mercury, Wise, Relay, etc.) exceed $10,000 at any point during the calendar year, you are required to file an FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) annually. The penalty for willful non-compliance can be significant. FBAR is included in our Scale plan.
When is the tax filing deadline for a foreign-owned LLC? ▾
Form 5472 + 1120 is due by April 15 (or October 15 with extension). Form 1040-NR is due June 15 for non-residents (or October 15 with extension). FBAR is due April 15 with automatic extension to October 15. We track all deadlines for every client on our monthly plans.
