Most people think you need to move to the USA to do business there. I used to believe the same… until I proved it wrong.
✨ The Beginning (2022)
In 2022, I started experimenting with Etsy. I launched a shop called NYCBanners, selling printed banners to U.S. customers. The demand was there, the products were great, but there was a big problem...
🚫 The Problem
- ✗ Etsy required a U.S. Bank Account for direct deposits
- ✗ I needed a U.S. Tax ID (EIN) for tax compliance
- ✗ Customers wanted to deal with a U.S. Company they could trust
- ✗ PayPal had restrictions and high fees for international sellers
💡 The Solution: Wyoming LLC
That's when I discovered the power of a Wyoming LLC. I registered Mansi Print Shop LLC from India:
- ✓ Formed a Wyoming LLC — no SSN required
- ✓ Got my EIN from the IRS within days
- ✓ Opened a Mercury U.S. Bank Account remotely
- ✓ Connected directly with Etsy + Stripe
🚀 The Results
From my little home office in Vadodara, I grew my Etsy shop into a serious business:

U.S. Customers
All money legally flowing into my U.S. LLC bank account — and I never had to leave India.
🔑 Key Takeaways
- → You don't need to struggle with PayPal restrictions
- → You don't need to fly to the USA
- → You don't need an SSN
All you need is the right setup: U.S. LLC + EIN + Bank Account + Platform (Etsy, Amazon, Shopify)
