Can you open EMIs with nominee US LLC?

[banafinfodafuggiano]

I need to open a Delaware/Wyoming LLC company with a nominee registered agent.
The agent told me if I do so, my name will not appear as the director on the incorporation document.

I guess this will make it almost impossible to open any bank account/EMIs such as Mercury transfers and so on
because they want to verify that I AM the director of the LLC, is this correct?


Does anyone know a workaround on this?

Unless the nominees are happy to give you their passports and proof of address, and‌ can do video ID/interview if necessary, you are not going to have any luck opening‍ any accounts for your EMI.

There are nominees that do this but they cost thousands⁠ per year, usually provided through regulated fiduciaries, not random incorporation mills. When you work with⁤ nominees (or professional directors as they prefer to be called), they will insist on being⁣ the sole signatories on the bank account as well.
