Firstbase and BaseAcross, side by side.

It suits startup founders abroad who want a Delaware or Wyoming company and expect to use its partner discounts and add-on services. Below are its prices as published in September 2026, what each of us does after the filing, and when Firstbase is the better choice.

02In fairness

Where Firstbase is stronger, and where it costs you.

Stronger

  • Formation is a one-off purchase that includes the EIN and help opening a bank account, and it was $99 plus state fees when we checked.
  • It forms in the same two states we recommend.
  • Mailroom, accounting and tax filing are all available from the same company as you grow.

Where it costs you

  • The registered agent renews at $299 a year per state, the highest stand-alone agent price among the companies compared here.
  • Tax filing for a non-US single-member LLC is $899 a year on top of the agent.
  • The $99 price is a promotion on a product listed at $399, so check which applies on the day.

03The decision

Which one fits you.

Choose Firstbase if

  • You're building a funded startup and will use enough of Firstbase's partner discounts and services to justify the prices.
  • You want a mailroom and accounting from the company that formed you.
Visit Firstbase

Choose BaseAcross if

  • You want the registered agent to renew for $119 a year on Starter, with an email before it does.
  • You want Form 5472 prepared as part of Premium rather than for $899 a year.
  • You want guidance for your country: which payment processors and banks take founders living there, and what your own tax office may expect.

That's its published price per state. Ours renews at $119 a year on Starter with the compliance calendar included, and filing the state's annual report or tax is $199 a year as an extra, or included on Premium.

It's a promotion on a formation listed at $399, so check which price applies when you order. State fees are extra either way. Our Starter is $289 plus the state fee, every day.
