STATE ATLAS · FORMED ON REQUEST

Michigan. Where America learned the assembly line.

Henry Ford's assembly line, Motown's hit factory, four Great Lakes: and one of the most affordable LLC fee schedules in the country. The honest assessment.

Motor City heritage in your contracts

The character of the state

In 1913, in Highland Park, Henry Ford had a chassis pulled through the hall on a rope for the first time while workers assembled it in rhythm, and the world had the assembly line: the Model T put America on wheels and made Detroit the Motor City. Half a century later, a few streets away, Berry Gordy built a second factory, only this time music came off the line: Motown, the sound of Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and the Supremes.

Michigan has lived through the fall of its industrial city and is working on one of America's most remarkable comebacks. That sobriety is exactly what a Michigan LLC projects: substance over show. The register is open: your name appears in it.

Who Michigan makes sense for

For anyone who wants a world-famous industrial address with a comeback story in their contracts, with no need for anonymity. For discretion: Wyoming or New Mexico.

Order a Michigan LLC

Do you really need a Michigan LLC?

The honest question before you order: if what draws you to Michigan is mainly the look of it, you don't need a Michigan LLC for that. Your business address is yours to choose, in any state, for any LLC. A Detroit address is available from any of the many virtual business address providers for around $20 to $150 a month; you book it yourself, directly with the provider, and it is not part of our package. Pair it with a Wyoming LLC and you get the same presence, plus anonymity in the register and the strongest statutory asset protection in the US.

There are two things an address cannot replace, though, and they belong to the full picture. First: your contracts and invoices show the company's state of formation. If they need to say "Michigan" in so many words, you really do need the Michigan LLC. Second: an address is appearance, not substance. If you actually keep premises, staff or ongoing business operations in Michigan, you create a real point of connection there, with reporting and tax consequences, regardless of where the LLC was formed. Situations like that belong in a consultation (held in English only) before you order.

And if your reason for Michigan is a personal or business connection: good choice. That is exactly what this page is for.

No hidden fees, no surprise invoices for extra work

Our flat fee covers every service you need to form your Michigan LLC and run it for the first 12 months. You'll find a detailed description of the services here. Bought separately, these services cost over $6,500. With us: one flat fee, $2,550, done.

Formation and taxes

Formation takes around 3 to 7 days. Structured correctly, your Michigan LLC pays no income tax in the US. Whether and to what extent the profits are taxed in your country of residence is a question for your tax adviser or for a consultation, held in English.

Asset protection

CLASS B+

The statute expressly limits creditors to the charging order. Solid protection with good case law. If you want maximum protection, choose Wyoming.

Rating: our firm's assessment based on the company law, not legal advice for your individual case.

Transparency in the register

Michigan's register names the people behind your LLC. For discretion, look at Wyoming or New Mexico, for example. More under anonymity.
