Formed your LLC with doola? Check what is actually included.

doola helps with formation and operating setup, including LLC/C-corp formation, registered agent service, EIN support, bookkeeping software, e-commerce analytics, banking-partner introductions, and a tax package. Its public positioning focuses on non-US founders, solo founders, and small e-commerce businesses, with state guidance covering all 50 states.

Its state guidance is not limited to one state: doola markets formation in all 50 states and identifies Wyoming and Delaware as top picks for non-US founders and online businesses.

doola leaves you with the same annual federal Form 5472 obligation that applies to foreign-owned single-member US LLCs with reportable transactions. That filing pairs Form 5472 with a pro forma Form 1120 and is separate from state formation, registered agent service, state annual reports, bookkeeping, and payment setup.

This is a federal information-return obligation. It is separate from state formation, registered agent service, state annual reports, bookkeeping, and payment setup.

doola's own Form 5472 article says it prepares the pro-forma 1120 and Form 5472, and the facts file ties that coverage to doola's Tax and Compliance plan, listed at $1,999/yr and discounted to $1,499/yr. The same facts file notes that doola's page describes e-filing, while current IRS instructions require foreign-owned disregarded-entity Form 5472 packages to be paper-filed or faxed.

If you want the broader doola compliance bundle, that may be the right fit. If you only need the federal Form 5472 + pro forma 1120 package filed, Form5472 Prep is the flat-fee alternative: $149 Standard (ready in 5-7 business days) or $199 Express (within 3 business days) — identical filing, IRS fax delivery included.

Your first Form 5472 year starts with the LLC's formation month and runs through the end of that tax year. A formation-year filing is required if the LLC had any reportable transaction, including capital contributions, distributions, owner reimbursements, or related-party payments.

The initial funding wire into the LLC's bank account almost always counts as a reportable transaction. That is why most newly formed foreign-owned LLCs have a first-year filing even before meaningful revenue starts.

We file it by collecting the LLC, owner, and year-end facts, generating the package, reviewing it, and faxing it to the IRS Ogden PIN Unit. The package includes pro forma Form 1120, Form 5472, supporting statement, cover letter, and a reasonable cause statement if late, with a timestamped fax receipt returned as evidence.

Every package is reviewed by an accountant before submission. We fax the signed package to the IRS Ogden PIN Unit at +1-855-887-7737 and send you the timestamped fax receipt as transmission evidence. 100% money-back guarantee if we fail to submit.

If your doola-formed LLC is more than one year old and prior Form 5472 filings were missed, the IRS DIIRSP process can be used to file late international information returns with a reasonable cause statement. The cleaner path is to file all missed years together before the IRS contacts you.
