Most Americans set up their LLC in the state they lived in when they started the business. Then they moved abroad and nobody told them their LLC didn't need to stay there. In this video, I walk through the specific state move we make for clients regularly — one that can save you thousands of dollars a year with about a week of paperwork. I break down why the state your LLC is registered in still matters after you leave, which states are aggressive about claiming ongoing tax nexus, and the exact process we use to move an LLC out cleanly without disrupting the business. If you're a US expat with a US LLC still registered in California, New York, New Mexico, Virginia, or any other income tax state, this is one of the highest-impact, lowest-effort moves you can make. Topics covered: ✔ How state tax nexus works for a US LLC when you live abroad ✔ Why California, New York, New Mexico, and Virginia are the worst offenders ✔ Real client case: 4 years of unnecessary California state tax on LLC income ✔ Why Wyoming is the default answer for most expats ✔ Wyoming vs. California annual filing fees ($100 vs. $800 minimum) ✔ How LLC domestication (redomicile) actually works ✔ Keeping your EIN, bank accounts, and business history intact ✔ When Delaware or Nevada makes more sense instead ✔ The rental property LLC exception ✔ Why moving the LLC also helps cut state tax ties for you personally Want us to look at your specific state situation and figure out the right move?
