So, I've been thinking of registering a limited company for some projects of mine, so that I can have a "portable legal identity", and I was mainly considering either an Irish or Estonian company (I am Irish, but i don't live there anymore).
Is a US company a good alternative? Did you need to have some connection or representative in the US to open one?
You need to have a legal agent in the US, but there are plenty services who offer that for you. I personally recommend https://wyomingllcattorney.com/ if you want to set up a company in the U.S. You do not ever have to physically go there, and the whole process from start to finish took me about a month, of which 99% was just waiting.
