When I was still living in Germany and running my first successful business, I had one big dream: to start an LLC as a German and live completely tax-free.
It all started during a trip to Thailand. I met someone who told me that he had already deregistered from Germany, set up an LLC, and was living a tax-free digital nomad lifestyle. It sounded almost unreal. At that time, I wanted the same freedom – but I had no idea how to do it.
Here’s the thing: when a wish truly comes from your heart, it always manifests. And that’s exactly what happened to me.
Why I Decided to Start an LLC
Back in Germany, I was paying taxes like everyone else. I knew there had to be a smarter way.
An LLC for digital nomads seemed like the perfect solution – it’s simple, legal, and offers incredible flexibility for entrepreneurs abroad.
But I didn’t know where to start.
My Journey to Going Stateless
After expressing my wish to change my life, I made my first bold move: I terminated my apartment lease in Germany.
My plan? Travel the world.
My first stop was Malta. On the plane, I met someone who had gone through the exact journey I wanted: from owning a German company (UG) to switching to a U.S. LLC and living tax-free. He kept telling me:
„Bro, just start an LLC. It’s the smartest move you can make.“
That conversation changed everything.
In Malta, I started the process of deregistering from Germany and forming my first LLC. From there, my journey took me to Thailand – and by the time I landed, my LLC formation was complete.
The Benefits of an LLC for Digital Nomads
- Live tax-free while running your business legally
- No German bureaucracy or complex compliance
- Complete flexibility for online entrepreneurs & freelancers
- Easy international banking (Wise, Payoneer, etc.)
Since then, I’ve been traveling the world as a stateless entrepreneur, enjoying my tax-free LLC income and helping others set up their companies too.
Challenges Along the Way
Of course, the journey wasn’t without challenges.
The German transparency register (Transparenzregister) even accused me of money laundering – simply because I still had an active German UG while my LLC was running. It was a mess, but also a valuable learning experience.
How You Can Do It Too
Now I’ve successfully helped multiple clients start an LLC as Germans, go fully stateless, and live the freedom they’ve always dreamed of.

Why More and More Germans Are Starting an LLC
In the past, only big companies thought about setting up international structures. But times have changed.
Digital entrepreneurs, freelancers, and online business owners are realizing how powerful an LLC can be:
- Low maintenance: No complicated bookkeeping like in Germany.
- Tax optimization: In the right structure, you can legally live tax-free.
- International freedom: Work from anywhere – Thailand, Dubai, Portugal, you name it.
- Professional appearance: Having an LLC gives you instant credibility with clients and partners.
For me, it was not just about taxes. It was about living life on my own terms.
Why I Help Others Start Their Own LLC
When I went through this journey, I wished there had been someone who could guide me step by step.
Now that I’ve done it myself, I help others set up their own LLC and navigate the process with ease.
I know the fears, the bureaucracy, the “what ifs.” And I also know the incredible freedom that waits on the other side.

Yes. Germans can easily start a U.S. LLC without living in the U.S. It’s a simple process and can be done 100% remotely.
Do I need to deregister from Germany to live tax-free with an LLC?
Yes, if you want to avoid German taxes, you need to deregister (Abmeldung) from Germany.
How much does it cost to start an LLC with your service
My LLC formation packages start at €899 and go up to €1,699, depending on the level of support and additional services you need (like deregistration consulting or long-term guidance).
Can I use an LLC for my online business?
Absolutely. An LLC is perfect for freelancers, digital nomads, and online entrepreneurs who want legal protection and tax benefits.
Which state is best for forming an LLC as a non-US resident?
I recommend New Mexico for most clients because it’s simple, cost-effective, and privacy-friendly.
