Service type: Connecting LLC with Shopify Payments
Price: Negotiable
Description: Seeking assistance to connect my LLC with Shopify Payments. Shopify doesn’t allow me to set up payments because my LLC is based in the USA, but I have no personal connection to the USA. The issue is that if I demonstrate any connection to the USA, I will no longer be treated as ETBUS, and the IRS will require me to pay taxes in the country. I’m not sure if this is the right solution or if there’s an alternative. Looking for expert advice and assistance on this matter.

I understand your concern. As an LLC based in the USA, Shopify Payments requires a US-based business address and a tax ID number to set up payments. However, you’re right that demonstrating a connection to the USA might affect your ETBUS status and lead to tax implications.
To clarify, ETBUS stands for “Exporter of Technical Business Services,” which allows foreign businesses to provide services to US customers without being taxed in the US. To maintain this status, you must ensure that your LLC doesn’t have a physical presence or other connections to the US.
Here are a few potential solutions to explore:
- Shopify Payments alternative: Consider using a payment gateway that supports international businesses, such as Stripe, PayPal, or Square. These services might have less stringent requirements for US connections.
- US-based payment processor: Look into payment processors specifically designed for international businesses, like Payoneer or WorldPay. They might offer more flexible solutions for your situation.
- Consult a tax professional: Schedule a consultation with a tax expert familiar with US and international tax laws. They can help you navigate the tax implications and ensure you’re taking the right steps to maintain your ETBUS status.
- Shopify support: Reach out to Shopify support and explain your situation. They might offer additional guidance or solutions specific to your case.
Before proceeding, I recommend consulting with a tax professional to ensure any solution you choose won’t jeopardize your ETBUS status.
Please let me know if you’d like more information on any of these options or if there’s anything else I can assist you with!
