Globalfy Alternative for a Florida LLC Formed From Overseas

Globalfy and our Non-US Founder Package overlap more than most: both form Florida LLCs for founders overseas, and both get a bank application moving before the EIN arrives. The difference is the model. Globalfy sells a yearly plan that keeps working for you, including the Florida annual report filing. We sell a one-time package and leave the yearly admin with you. Since we sell the package, take this as a competitor's comparison.

Why founders overseas choose Globalfy

Globalfy is built for the ongoing years as much as the first one. Its plans include the annual state renewal filing, which in Florida is a real deadline: the report is due by May 1, and missing it costs $400. The Remote plan adds Form 5472 and the pro forma 1120 for one-owner service businesses. Starter gives you a street address with scanned mail, and bookkeeping software comes free on a self-serve license. Globalfy also helps with Mercury and Lili bank applications before your EIN is issued. Its presence in Latin America and among Portuguese speakers is strong.

Year by year in Florida

We're $189 lower in year one. After that, compare our $99 plus your own time on the report against whatever Globalfy's plan renews at.

What we do differently

1. One payment, one small renewal. No plan to keep up: $399 once and $99 a year for the agent if you keep it.
2. A completed application, not assistance. Your checkout answers populate the application for our partners, we attach your filed Articles, and it's ready as the SS-4 gets your signature. You approve it, we send it, and the EIN catches up later. Our partners decide every application, and we can't guarantee the result.
3. The SS-4, prepared and faxed. We complete the form for an owner with no SSN, collect an e-signature, and fax it. The IRS usually takes two to eight weeks.

Globalfy is the better fit when

• You want the Florida report filed for you every year.
• Your single-member service LLC would use 5472 filing inside a plan.
• A US address with mail scanning is useful to you.

After your Florida LLC is formed

With our package, the annual report is yours: Sunbiz, between January 1 and May 1, $138.75, and a company still unfiled by the third Friday of September can be administratively dissolved. Tax filings are yours too. Many foreign-owned single-member LLCs file Form 5472 each year, and a tax professional can set that up.

Common questions

Is Florida one of Globalfy's states?

Yes. Globalfy lists Florida with its $125 state fee, along with Wyoming, Delaware, Texas, and New Mexico.

What's the cost difference in year one?

Globalfy Starter plus Florida's fee is $713, and Remote plus the fee is $1,123. Our package plus the fee is $524, so we're $189 below Starter.

Who takes care of the Florida annual report?

Globalfy includes the annual state renewal filing in its plans and charges the state's fee separately. With our package, you file Florida's $138.75 report on your own or through a filer you choose.

Does Globalfy handle US taxes for foreign owners?

For single-member LLCs that sell remote services without effectively connected US income, the Remote plan ($998 a year) and above cover Form 5472 and the pro forma 1120. We don't file taxes.

Can my bank application go out before the EIN exists?

Yes, with both. Globalfy helps before the EIN, and we have your application for our partners completed by the time the SS-4 is signed, then send it on your approval. Approval stays with the partners.
