professional review required · privacy-none
Form an operating LLC, then decide who owns it — person vs funded trust — with an attorney.
Suggested graph
Revocable or other counsel-designed trust as member → Wyoming or Delaware LLC (operating) → foreign qualify where you actually live and sell.
- A sole proprietorship has no public formation record because it has no entity. That is not privacy; it is unlimited personal liability.
- A manager-managed LLC in a low-disclosure formation state can put a trustee or manager name on the public filing instead of every beneficial owner.
- That is a public-record tradeoff. It is not a way to hide from taxes, lawful creditors, or court process.
Not this
- Anonymous offshore stacks sold as 'the IRS cannot see you'
- Skipping foreign qualification in the state you operate
- Calling a revocable trust a lawsuit shield
Review with: attorney, cpa. Same inputs always produce this template — not an LLM.
