US LLC Formation Nigeria —
Stripe, Wise & USD Banking
A US LLC lets you invoice globally in USD, access Stripe as a US business, open Wise Business and Mercury accounts, and protect your income from naira devaluation — all under a legitimate US entity you fully own.
Entrepreneurs from Nigeria can form a Wyoming LLC ($0 service fee + $100 state fee), obtain an IRS EIN ($40, 2-day delivery), and open Wise Business or Mercury Bank to accept global USD payments via Stripe US. Remit earnings directly to local bank accounts or in USD with 100% remote compliance and zero US travel.
Why Nigeria entrepreneurs hit walls
Running a global business from Nigeria means dealing with restrictions that US-based founders never face. A US LLC eliminates them.
Stripe heavily restricts Nigerian merchant accounts
Naira devaluation erodes USD earnings instantly
PayPal withdrawals blocked for Nigerians
International clients hesitate to pay Nigerian accounts
Most US banking partners restrict Nigerian nationals

Frequently asked questions
Common questions from Nigeria entrepreneurs about forming a US LLC.
Can a Nigerian citizen legally own a US LLC?
Yes. Any Nigerian national can legally own a US LLC. There is no US citizenship, residency, or visa requirement. You are the legal owner of the entity.
Does a US LLC protect me from naira devaluation?
Yes. With a Wise Business or Mercury account linked to your US LLC, you receive and hold income in USD. You convert to naira only when needed, at the rate of your choosing.
Will Stripe approve a Nigerian-owned US LLC?
A US LLC is a US business entity. Stripe evaluates it as such — your Nigerian nationality is declared as beneficial owner but does not disqualify the application. HynoGo prepares documentation to maximise approval.
Do I need to travel to the US?
No. The entire process — LLC filing, EIN registration, banking setup — is 100% remote.
What is the annual cost to maintain the LLC?
Wyoming LLC: approximately $60/year for the state annual report, plus registered agent renewal. HynoGo includes the first year in full.
