If it is the VPN, I don't understand why that would bother a formation company. My hunch is it was the pre-paid card with a funny name. Or maybe both.


You can give them any name and address for internal records because they can't check citizen records in other countries, although officially you're "supposed to" give your real name. But for filing the BOI with the state, they essentially provide a nominee service.

Because they will loose all the money and also need to pay extra fees in a chargeback/fraud case .

I paid with a pre-paid debit card and the next day they emailed me to say they want a photo ID of the cardholder.

This undermines the whole purpose of being anonymous.

Formation company in question is Wyoming Registered Agent Services.

Has anyone else had problems paying for the LLC anonymously?

As mentioned it is for avoiding chargebacks.

However, you could simply have found a provider who accept crypto payment as payment method and you would have been fine not to send the passport.

The formation company is supposed to cover that. Wyoming Registered Agent Services file their own BOI in place of us who order.

Just to reiterate on what @Forester and @ilke have already said: that's not how it works. You're confusing BOI with state annual report and maybe getting an EIN. The latter two, a registered agent can do for you. The first would be a felony to file incorrectly.

This is the probably the answer to your question.

Has anyone on the thread updated ownership remotely?

Money order or check presenting a problem. Does anyone have or know a decent vendor for this? It's set up. Just a change of owner

They aren't in Wyoming. Is there one here that's recommended?

If not Wyoming, where is your company incorporated?

In the end up, EMI can send check with attachment. Just waiting on confirmation they will do so
