Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Puduhepa , I agree with the IRS that (a) your entity / LLC is only a name for US tax purposes. In needs to have physical presence to become a taxable entity; (b) selling product to US customers, as an on-line trader you are a not US taxpayer and the income is taxable ONLY where you are resident i.e. your home country ( generally); (c) you are correct that if you indeed had passive incomes like interest paid by US banks, rental income etc. , US would consider those as US sourced income and you will have to file a return and pay taxes on the income ( at quite a high rate though ).
Also if you indeed had to file return, you would need an ITIN. For that the easiest is to file a return , sign/date the paperfile and include with it the fully filled out form W-7 ( request for ITIN ) and include original documents like your passport (or certified copies of the same working through professional agents whom have been certified by the IRS -- most countries have multiple of these agents, especially in the big cities ). So unless you need the ITIN ( it can ONLY be used for tax filing ), perhaps you should not follow through on this.
Is there more I can do for you ?
