Nebraska. Where the good life does the maths.

The character of the state

On the edge of Omaha stands an unremarkable house, bought in 1958 for 31,500 dollars, and the man who lives in it became one of the richest people in history. Warren Buffett is Nebraska in person: no show, no noise, just substance, patience and common sense. The state calls itself "The Good Life", and it means exactly the kind of wealth that has no need to show off.

For an LLC, that means Nebraska may be the least conspicuous address in the US. No tax-haven reputation, no associations, just a rock-solid state in the middle of the country whose register does not know your name. Only with a newspaper notice from grandfather's day as the price of admission.

Who Nebraska makes sense for

For anyone to whom maximum discretion plus anonymity matters more than the fastest and cheapest route. And a little for anyone who would like to send a quiet nod to the Buffett ethos of their state of formation. If you want the pragmatic option: Wyoming delivers anonymity without publication.

Do you really need a Nebraska LLC?

The honest counter-question before you order: if what draws you to Nebraska is mainly the look, you do not need a Nebraska LLC for it. Your business address is yours to choose, in any state, for any LLC. You can get an Omaha address from one of the many virtual business address providers for around $20 to $150 a month; you book that yourself, directly with the provider, and it is not part of our package. Combined with a Wyoming LLC you get the same presence, plus 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 state the company's state of formation. If you need "Nebraska" to appear there explicitly, you really do need the Nebraska LLC. Second: an address is appearance, not substance. If you actually keep premises, staff or ongoing business operations in Nebraska, you create a real connection there with reporting and tax consequences, regardless of where the LLC was formed. Set-ups like that belong in a consultation (held in English only) beforehand.

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

No hidden fees, no surprise bills for extra work

Our flat fee covers every service you need to form your Nebraska LLC and run it for the first 12 months. You will find a detailed description of the services here. Bought one by one, these services cost over $6,500. With us: one flat fee, $2,600, done.

Formation and taxes

Formation takes a few days and the publication phase three weeks; your LLC can operate from the day it is formed. Set up correctly, the Nebraska zero-tax LLC pays no income tax in the United States. Whether, and to what extent, the profits are taxable in your country of residence is a question for your tax adviser or for a consultation, held in English.

Anonymity

Nebraska offers anonymity: only the details of our firm or of the service providers we use are filed. For context, as always: banks and payment providers verify your identity regardless of the register. More under anonymity.
