I provide end-to-end international business support for entrepreneurs, startups, and growing companies looking to establish, manage, or close businesses across multiple jurisdictions. My work focuses on simplifying complex regulatory processes and ensuring full compliance with local and international requirements. I specialize in US LLC formation, including New Mexico LLC registration, EIN application support, and guidance on business structure and documentation. I have successfully assisted clients in setting up their companies remotely, ensuring smooth onboarding and proper documentation for banking and operations. In addition, I handle Poland and EU VAT services, including VAT registration, ongoing VAT filings, OSS/IOSS compliance, and EORI/PUESC setup. I support eCommerce sellers and international businesses in maintaining compliance while expanding across European markets. I also provide company dissolution and strike-off services, helping business owners properly close their companies in compliance with legal and tax requirements. This includes guidance on final filings, documentation, and ensuring a clean exit without future liabilities. Beyond compliance, I assist clients with global sourcing by connecting them with trusted suppliers across UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the wider GCC region. I help businesses find reliable partners, verify suppliers, and streamline procurement processes. My approach is focused on accuracy, speed, and clear communication. I have built a reputation for delivering reliable solutions that help clients start faster, stay compliant, and scale confidently in international markets.
