US Etsy account with LLC
 

Has anyone here experience of setting up a US Etsy account with a LLC?

I'm in the UK and can set up a US LLC and business banking but would this be acceptable on Etsy or Amazon?

Experienced knowledge would be appreciated rather than speculation

You can't set up an US etsy account with a LLC. They don't allow non personal account here.

You can only shift the tax responsibility to an LLC after opening a personal account if that's what your trying to do.

@jdtodd or anyone else that can help me out.
I passed the 1099 threshold this year.

Last year I was close to the threshold so ets# asked for irs details so I got an EIN in the shops name (but I didn't create the llc).

This year I have to create an llc my question is what address will the 1099 come in? I'm assuming the stealth address.

So what address do I create the llc with?
(The shops EIN has my real address)

Not sure if I can put the stealth address as the business address and my real address as the llc address.

Does anyone know?

Thank you in advance.

I tried vice versa. US info account with LTD based in UK. Got an error that "info can't be saved".

Tried same with german info and LTD in UK - same error.

Both times selected "register as business" option. So my assumption is cross country info/business does not work.

Let me know how it goes for you
