FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What people ask most before their first consultation.

All questions

Yes. Formation documents are filed online with the state, so in most cases the entire process can be done remotely from Korea. We send you a checklist of what is needed.

As a rule of thumb, companies planning to raise investment or issue shares often consider a C-Corp (especially in Delaware), while small businesses, online sellers and property holders often consider an LLC for its simpler structure. Tax treatment and Korean reporting also differ, so we decide together after hearing your plan.

Yes. You can apply remotely from Korea through our partner US bank, which offers its own service in Korean. Approval depends on the bank’s review and the applicant’s situation (business type, documents, nationality, etc.), so it cannot be guaranteed.

Fees depend on the service, the state of formation and any add-ons (registered agent, annual reports, etc.). We confirm the scope in your consultation and then send a quote.
