An Indiana LLC costs $95 to file with the Indiana Secretary of State, renews on a $32 biennial report every two years, and pays Indiana's flat 3.05% income tax plus local county taxes. Indiana lists members or managers on the public record, so a founder who needs ownership privacy forms a Wyoming or New Mexico anonymous LLC and foreign-qualifies into Indiana. Anonymousllc.co forms an Indiana LLC for $392 all-in ($297 service fee plus the $95 state fee) and finishes in 5 to 10 business days.
An Indiana LLC costs $392 all-in through Anonymousllc.co: a $297 service fee plus the $95 state filing fee. That single price covers the state filing, registered agent for year one, an Indiana operating agreement, the EIN, and four to five US bank applications. Filing direct with the Indiana Secretary of State costs the $95 state fee alone, but the founder then handles the name search, operating agreement, EIN, and banking without support. From year two the recurring cost is the $100/year registered agent plus the $32 biennial report, which lands every two years rather than annually. Add-on services sit outside the $392 formation price: the EIN is $99 when bought alone, an ITIN is $299, and a BOI report is $150 each where a filing is required. Every charge is quoted before work starts, so the founder approves each line over WhatsApp before it is billed.
No. Indiana lists members or managers on public Secretary of State records, so an Indiana LLC does not keep ownership private on its own. A registered agent hides the founder's street address but not the owner's name. A founder who needs true anonymity forms a Wyoming or New Mexico anonymous LLC, where members and managers stay off the public record, then foreign-qualifies that entity into Indiana when local operations require it. This structure pairs Indiana market access with the ownership privacy Indiana's own filings do not provide. See /wyoming-anonymous-llc/ for the privacy path. Wyoming keeps members and managers off the state record entirely, and New Mexico does the same at $347 all-in with no annual report. The foreign-qualified Wyoming or New Mexico entity becomes the owner of record in Indiana, so the founder's name never reaches the Indiana Secretary of State database.
An Indiana LLC is fully operational in 5 to 10 business days end-to-end with Anonymousllc.co. The Secretary of State accepts the Articles of Organization within 1 to 3 business days, the EIN follows in 5 to 7 days for non-residents, and bank approval averages 8 to 10 days after the EIN. The path runs in parallel wherever it can. Intake is a 5-minute WhatsApp conversation on day 0, the filing goes out the same day, and bank applications reach four or five partner banks at once so approval does not wait on a single institution.
An Indiana LLC pays Indiana's flat 3.05% personal income tax plus local county taxes on profit that passes through to the owner. The IRS treats a single-member LLC as a disregarded entity and a multi-member LLC as a partnership by default, with no federal entity-level tax. An LLC electing S-corporation treatment on IRS Form 2553 cuts self-employment tax once net income passes roughly $40,000 to $60,000. Indiana's 3.05% rate and the local county tax still apply to the pass-through profit regardless of the federal election. A non-resident owner with no US effectively connected income files a Form 5472 information return with a pro-forma Form 1120 each year but owes no US income tax on foreign-earned profit. Anonymousllc.co connects clients with US tax preparers who handle both the Indiana and federal filings.
Indiana requires a business entity report every two years, not every year, and the fee is $32. The report confirms the registered agent and principal office address and updates member or manager information where the state requires it. Missing the deadline moves the LLC toward administrative dissolution, which strips good standing and can void the liability shield retroactively. Anonymousllc.co tracks the anniversary-month due date and files the biennial report as part of the $100/year registered agent service. The biennial cycle runs on the LLC's formation date rather than a fixed calendar date, so each entity carries its own due window. Reinstating an administratively dissolved Indiana LLC costs $250 plus state fees through Anonymousllc.co, which makes on-time filing the far cheaper path.
Yes. Every Indiana LLC must list a registered agent with a physical Indiana street address to receive service of process and state mail. A PO Box does not satisfy the requirement, and the agent must be available during business hours. Anonymousllc.co provides Indiana registered agent service at $100/year, included free in year one of any formation package. The agent's address appears on the public filing instead of the founder's home or office address, and mail is scanned and forwarded the day it arrives. See /indiana-registered-agent/.
Yes. Indiana allows series LLCs, letting one master LLC hold multiple assets or business lines under separate series with internal liability separation between them. Each series shields its own assets from the debts of the other series. A series structure needs series-specific provisions in the operating agreement to keep each cell's assets and liabilities distinct. Anonymousllc.co drafts an Indiana operating agreement with these clauses when a founder forms a series LLC rather than a standard single-series entity.
Yes. Non-US residents form Indiana LLCs without an SSN, ITIN, or visa, and never need to visit the United States. Indiana places no citizenship or residency condition on LLC ownership. Anonymousllc.co files the Articles, obtains the EIN by fax as third-party designee in 5 to 7 days, provides the Indiana registered agent and address, and submits US bank applications remotely. The founder runs the entire process from abroad over WhatsApp.
Indiana costs $392 all-in and lists owners on the public record; Wyoming costs $397 all-in and keeps owners private; New Mexico costs $347 all-in with no annual report and no annual state fee. The privacy gap is the deciding factor for many founders. A founder who operates a physical business inside Indiana forms an Indiana LLC directly. A founder whose priority is ownership privacy forms a Wyoming or New Mexico anonymous LLC and foreign-qualifies into Indiana only when local operations demand a registered presence there.
An Indiana LLC costs about $100 per year to maintain from year two: the $100/year registered agent plus the $32 biennial report averaged across its two-year cycle. Indiana charges no annual franchise tax in the Delaware sense. The biennial report lands every two years, so the $32 fee is not a yearly charge. Indiana's 3.05% income tax applies to profit rather than to the entity as a flat annual levy, so ongoing compliance cost stays low next to Nevada or Delaware.
The Anonymousllc.co Indiana package covers the $95 state filing, registered agent for year one, an Indiana-specific operating agreement, the EIN, and four to five US bank applications, for $392 total. Add-on services are priced separately. Add-ons include the EIN at $99 when bought alone, ITIN at $299, and BOI reports at $150 each where a filing is required. Banking applications go to Mercury, Relay, Bluevine, and other partners, and the multi-bank approach reaches roughly a 90% approval rate.
