Why US founders choose Saint Lucia
Forex, crypto & brokerage licensing for US founders
US founders use Saint Lucia for the international, non-US-facing side of forex, crypto, and brokerage businesses, where onshore US licensing is prohibitively complex.
For the international side of your business
US-based founders typically use a Saint Lucia IBC for non-US-facing forex, crypto, or brokerage operations, where building an onshore US-regulated entity is impractical. Saint Lucia provides a fast, cost-effective international framework with optional ECSRC regulation. Critically, a Saint Lucia company does not remove US tax and reporting obligations for US persons (FBAR, Form 5471, GILTI/Subpart F) and you must not target US clients without the appropriate US registrations — we form the entity correctly and strongly recommend US legal and tax advice on structure and client targeting.
Saint Lucia Company Formation for US Residents
US entrepreneurs use Saint Lucia IBCs for international operations and holding structures that benefit from a flexible, tax-efficient offshore vehicle and multi-currency banking.
Important note on US tax
US persons are taxed on worldwide income and face reporting obligations (such as FBAR, Form 5471, and GILTI/Subpart F rules). A Saint Lucia IBC does not remove US tax obligations. We handle correct formation and compliance in Saint Lucia; please take US tax advice to structure and report appropriately.
