Foreign LLC Owner
<p>I'm planning to start an LLC in Arizona. I live in Mexico and plan to continue residing there.</p>

<p>The LLC would be created to open a fitness center.</p>

<p>I've tried with LegalZoom, but they just offer LLC creation for American citizens. </p>

<p>Is it possible, as a foreign national, to create an Arizona LLC, be the sole owner, and also work on the business without living in the United States? What kind of special lawyer do I need to help me with this situation?</p>

<p>I don't understand what LegalZoom might be providing that limits the applicant to US citizens. </p>

<p>There is one two-page form to fill out.</p>

<p>The instructions are clear. </p>

<p>The corporation is required to have a statutory agent in the state. It doesn't matter where the owners live. </p>
