After a longer time, a longer post – sorry
🙂
Sure, a personal documentation is expected, naturally.
@johanmichel mentioned just LLC documents, so I've overlooked it somehow.
This is a
very significant advice. I agree completely and feel a little bit︁ ashamed that I have not recalled this. A high credit limit is really adored in︂ the U.S.
It will help, definitely. I witnessed opening accounts for LLCs even without banking history,︄ especially with local banks; but if your LLC is not a startup, it's natural to︅ show it.
From what I have witnessed, a phone call from your registering︉ agent to a local bank representative like “Hey Sam, I have a guy here who︊ is my client for some time and never made any troubles; now he needs a︋ reasonable banking, when can you talk to him?” works really well.
Cannot comment about California (but the abovesaid sounds very plausible); yet re: Florida, Miami️ especially, banks there are open to Europeans, too – TBMK.
Well, probably it's not an OP's intention to go to states like Kansas or Arkansas; but in general, I am afraid that in the more conservative states not much visited by foreigners it can be more difficult.
Very true.
Yes.
It depends on︇ the state and on the bank. In general, smaller local banks tend to be more︈ conservative, unfortunately.
This can change the︊ game significantly. If you are able and willing to invest some money like quoted above︋ through the bank, then even some Swiss (or LI) banks can be willing to onboard︌ you, especially if you present your LLC just as a subject managing your assets. Of︍ course, an introducer will help you a lot.
It is probably not exactly️ corresponding to the reality as Deloitte & Touche, Ernst & Young, KPMG, PWC and BDO are doing this globally and I guess they have offices in Poland; yet I agree that they are not much likely to help you when you are just a small fish.
Surprisingly for me, there are no independent vendors in PL. Yet e.g. in Czechia I see two and in Germany plenty (

😉
And this Fiverr way discussed above is not that bad, IMO.
Nice to hear – and good for you!
Yes, it has been already mentioned (
