Portugal has become Europe's digital nomad capital — but serving US clients through a Portuguese NIF means international wire fees, EUR-USD friction, and the foreign vendor barrier. A US LLC gives you a genuine American business presence — US address, Stripe US, USD bank account — formed in 1-5 days from Lisbon, Porto, or the Algarve.

If you own a US LLC as a Portuguese citizen, the IRS requires you to file Form 5472 with a pro-forma Form 1120 every year — even if your LLC had zero revenue. This is an information return, not a tax return. The penalty for missing this filing is $25,000 per form, per year. Form 5472 must be filed on paper — it cannot be e-filed. Our compliance bundle handles this for you.
