Why Indiana?
Moderate fees and a low flat income tax rate. Suitable for manufacturing, logistics, and businesses with Midwest operations. Non-residents can form a Indiana LLC without any US address, SSN, or physical presence. Edeal handles the registered agent requirement and the entire filing process.
Most non-residents registering a US LLC choose Wyoming ($100 filing fee, $60/year) or Delaware (investor-friendly). Indiana makes the most sense when you operate in Indiana or have Midwest supply chains and operations.
State Fees
These are government fees paid to the State of Indiana — not Edeal's service fee. Edeal registers your LLC for $1 + state fees.
LLC Formation
- Filing fee: $95 — one-time, paid to the Indiana Secretary of State
- Annual fee: $32/yr — biennial report ($64), paid to the State of Indiana to keep your LLC in good standing
- Registered Agent: required by law — Edeal provides a registered agent as part of its service
All fees are set by the State of Indiana and publicly available from the Indiana Secretary of State's office.
Who Indiana Is Right For
- Businesses with physical presence in Indiana — employees, office space, or warehouse
- Companies serving Indiana-based customers — local nexus justifies registration here
- Non-residents when you operate in Indiana or have Midwest supply chains and operations
Who Indiana Is Not the Best Fit For
- Freelancers and remote businesses without Indiana ties — Wyoming or Delaware are usually more cost-effective
- Non-residents seeking maximum privacy — Wyoming and New Mexico offer stronger member privacy protections
- Businesses optimizing purely for cost — Wyoming at $100 + $60/year is typically the baseline for non-residents
If you are unsure which state fits your situation, Edeal can help you compare before you register.
FAQ
Do I need to visit Indiana or have a US address to register an LLC?
No. Non-residents from any country can register a Indiana LLC without visiting the state, without a US address, and without an SSN. The only requirement is a registered agent with a Indiana address — Edeal provides this.
What is the annual fee for a Indiana LLC?
The annual government fee for a Indiana LLC is $32/yr (Biennial Report ($64)). This fee is paid to the State of Indiana to keep your LLC in good standing — it is a mandatory government fee, not an income tax rate.
Can I open a US bank account with a Indiana LLC?
Yes. A Indiana LLC formed through Edeal comes with the documentation typically required by US banks and fintechs (Mercury, Relay, Brex). Having an EIN is usually also required — Edeal can assist with that process.
