Stetson Business Services
Plan your Texas LLC structure with Stetson
Explore the flexibility of an LLC with a coordinated plan for structure, records and reporting.
Start with a flexible business structure
An LLC offers flexibility in ownership and management. US federal tax treatment can be that of a disregarded entity, partnership or corporation, depending on ownership and elections. Stetson helps organize your business goals and the questions for a qualified tax review before any election.
Coordinate the reporting review
Start with Stetson to organize the facts, transactions and reporting questions. A foreign-owned US disregarded entity with reportable related-party transactions can need Form 5472 with a pro forma Form 1120, even without income tax due. Individual tax advice and return preparation require an appropriately qualified professional under a separate engagement.
Build a plan around how you operate
Stetson helps map where the owners, management, work and assets are located and coordinate specialist review of tax classification, treaty eligibility and reporting. Texas formation does not remove obligations elsewhere or guarantee savings. Our role is to keep the business decisions and next steps organized.
LLC questions and beyond. Start with Stetson.
Wherever you are building from, you do not have to work out the next step alone. Bring Stetson your questions about formation, company administration, growth or technology. We help define the priorities, agree the support you need and coordinate specialist input where appropriate.
Formation packages and ongoing consulting have separate scopes and fees. Legal representation, tax advice and individualized investment advice require a separately agreed engagement with an appropriately qualified professional. Contact Stetson to discuss the support appropriate to your circumstances.
