Clemta provides LLC/C-corp formation, EIN application, registered agent and US business address services, mail receipt, banking support, invoicing, bookkeeping, and tiered Federal Tax Filing add-ons for non-US founders. If your LLC was formed or maintained through Clemta, the public-plan question is whether Form 5472 + pro forma Form 1120 is specifically included for your account.

What does Clemta do for you?#

Clemta's offering includes LLC/C-corp formation, EIN application, registered agent service with a US business address, mail receipt, banking support, invoicing, bookkeeping through Clemta Books, and paid Federal Tax Filing features. Its public materials aim at non-US founders, international entrepreneurs, small businesses, e-commerce sellers, freelancers, and VC-track startups.

The facts file says Clemta prominently promotes Wyoming and Delaware while listing many additional US states and territories as available.

What does Clemta leave with you?#

A foreign-owned single-member US LLC still has to file Form 5472 and a pro forma Form 1120 annually when it has reportable transactions. The rule applies no matter which company handled formation, EIN application, registered agent service, or business-address setup.

This is a federal IRS information return. It is different from formation work, state annual compliance, registered agent duties, bookkeeping, and generic business filings.

Do Clemta's public pages itemize the 5472 package?#

No; the facts file says Clemta's plan comparison does not name Form 5472 or pro forma Form 1120 as included. Clemta's own Form 5472 explainer mentions assistance with Form 5472 filings, but does not state a price or confirm automatic inclusion in a specific tier.

That is not a confirmed no. It is a public-pages gap. Ask Clemta to confirm in writing whether your plan or invoice includes Form 5472 + pro forma Form 1120; if it is not itemized, a Form 5472-specific service closes that exact gap.

What is your first-year filing timeline?#

The first tax year begins in the LLC's formation month, even if the company only existed for part of the calendar year. If there was any reportable transaction before year-end, the first-year Form 5472 + pro forma Form 1120 package is due the following filing season.

The first owner funding wire to open a bank account or pay operating costs is usually reportable. That makes first-year filings common even for Clemta-formed LLCs with little or no revenue.

How do we file it?#

Form5472 Prep uses a 12-question wizard to capture the LLC, owner, formation-year, year-end asset, and related-party transaction facts. We prepare the IRS package, including pro forma Form 1120, Form 5472, the supporting statement, and a DIIRSP reasonable cause statement if needed.

An accountant reviews the filing before it leaves our system. We fax it to the IRS Ogden PIN Unit at +1-855-887-7737 and provide the timestamped fax receipt. 100% money-back guarantee if we fail to submit.

How do you catch up on multiple missed years?#

If your Clemta-formed LLC is more than one year old and prior 5472 coverage is unclear, review each year separately. When filings were missed and the IRS has not contacted you, DIIRSP catch-up filing with a reasonable cause statement is the standard route.

Form5472 Prep is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Clemta.

Frequently asked questions

Does Clemta's Federal Tax Filing line definitely include Form 5472?

It is not clear from the public pages summarized in the facts file. The pricing page lists Federal Tax Filing, while the facts file says it does not name Form 5472 or pro forma Form 1120 in the plan comparison.

Clemta's blog mentions Form 5472 assistance. Is that enough?

Not by itself. The facts file says the blog mentions assistance with Form 5472 filings but does not state a price or confirm that the filing is automatically included in a specific plan tier.

What should I ask Clemta before buying another filing service?

Ask for written confirmation that your specific plan or invoice includes both Form 5472 and the attached pro forma Form 1120 for the relevant tax year. Generic Federal Tax Filing language is less precise.

Does my Clemta EIN application satisfy anything with the IRS?

It gets the LLC an EIN, but it does not file the annual information return. Form 5472 + pro forma Form 1120 remains a separate annual package when the LLC has reportable transactions.
