You formed a U.S. LLC. Now the IRS requires your personal tax ID, an ITIN for non-resident LLC owners, before you can file returns, collect payments, or open a U.S. business bank account. Nolly’s IRS-Certified Acceptance Agents handle everything, fully remote.
When a non-U.S. resident owns or receives income from a U.S. LLC, the IRS requires a personal tax identification number. Without a Social Security Number, which most foreign LLC owners do not qualify for, an ITIN for non-resident individuals is the only tax ID the IRS will accept.
Without an ITIN for LLC compliance, your business faces immediate, real-world consequences that affect payments, filings, banking access, and regulatory standing. These issues do not resolve themselves over time; they compound.

Based on Nolly client data, the following shows the distribution of non-resident LLC owners who apply for an ITIN, categorized by their primary business activity.
Why Non-Residents Apply for an ITIN
Many LLC owners ask whether they need an ITIN for LLC ownership if they already have an EIN. The answer is yes, they serve completely different purposes, and neither replaces the other. An ITIN for non-resident tax filing identifies you personally as an individual; an EIN identifies your LLC as a business entity. Both are required for full IRS compliance.
A common and costly mistake is assuming that registering for an EIN satisfies all IRS identification requirements. It does not. The IRS requires a personal TIN, your ITIN for non-resident status, whenever you file a personal return, receive income subject to reporting, or correspond with the IRS in your own name.

Fill out a short form, and the IRS-Certified team handles everything for your ITIN for LLC application. No paperwork upfront. Fully remote. Backed by a 100% money-back guarantee.
Non-U.S. residents who do not qualify for a Social Security Number apply for an ITIN for LLC ownership through IRS Form W-7. The process requires identity documents and proof of a U.S. tax filing requirement. Working with an IRS-Certified Acceptance Agent like Nolly is the most reliable approach; the application is prepared, documents are verified remotely, and the ITIN for non-resident filing is submitted directly to the IRS on your behalf.
Yes. An EIN identifies your LLC as a business entity. An ITIN for LLC owners identifies you personally as the individual behind the business. If you are a non-U.S. resident required to file a personal tax return or report income received through your LLC, you need both. Neither replaces the other, nor does either satisfy the IRS’s requirement for the other.
The IRS does not offer a direct online ITIN application portal. However, Nolly’s process is fully remote. IRS-Certified Acceptance Agents verify your identity documents digitally and submit your ITIN for a non-resident application to the IRS, without requiring the mailing of original documents or in-person visits to any IRS office or embassy.
The IRS typically processes complete, error-free ITINs for LLC applications within 7–12 weeks of receipt. During peak tax season (January through April), processing may extend to 12–14 weeks. Applications that contain errors or missing documents face further delays. Every Nolly application is carefully reviewed before submission to minimize processing time.
Yes. ITINs are specifically designed for individuals who have a U.S. tax obligation but do not qualify for a Social Security Number. U.S. citizenship, residency, and a visa are not required. Your immigration status has no bearing on your eligibility for an ITIN for non-resident LLC ownership.
Most applicants require a valid government-issued photo ID (typically a passport), documentation establishing a U.S. tax filing requirement, and a completed IRS Form W-7. Exact document requirements for an ITIN for an LLC application vary by situation. Nolly provides a clear, personalized checklist after reviewing each case, at no upfront cost.
If the IRS rejects the ITIN for a non-resident application for any reason, Nolly identifies the issue, corrects it, and resubmits at no additional charge. The 100% money-back guarantee means that if Nolly ultimately cannot obtain your ITIN, you will receive a full refund with no conditions.
Nolly offers three packages: Standard ($199), Form W-7 preparation, CAA verification, and IRS submission; Priority ($265), adds a dedicated specialist, 24–48 hour review, and expedited handling; LLC Complete ($549), bundles your ITIN for LLC with Form 5472, Pro-Forma 1120, and Form 1040-NR for complete annual IRS compliance. All packages include the 100% money-back guarantee.
Yes. An ITIN for non-resident tax filing expires if it has not been used on a U.S. federal return for three consecutive calendar years. The IRS also periodically targets specific ITIN digit ranges for mandatory renewal. If your ITIN for LLC compliance has expired, Nolly assists with the renewal process to ensure your filing obligations are not interrupted.
Form 5472 is an IRS information return required annually for single-member, foreign-owned U.S. LLCs. It reports transactions between the LLC and its foreign owner, including contributions, distributions, and loans, and must be filed even when the LLC has had no taxable income. The minimum IRS penalty for failure to file is $25,000 per return, per year. Nolly’s LLC Complete package includes Form 5472 preparation, along with the ITIN for the LLC application and the personal return.
