500+ Pakistani founders
secured ITINs remotely - no passport mailing
You built a US LLC from Pakistan. That takes real work. But here is something a lot of founders find out too late - without an ITIN, you are technically an outsider in your own business. The IRS does not recognize you as a tax-filing entity yet, and that gap creates problems that go way beyond paperwork.
An ITIN - Individual Taxpayer Identification Number - is what connects you, a non-resident founder, to the US tax system. You do not need an SSN to get one. You just need US-source income or a US-registered business. For Pakistani freelancers, Amazon sellers, SaaS founders, and anyone running a US LLC from here, that means you almost certainly need one.
Pakistan has a tax treaty with the US. With a valid ITIN, you may qualify for reduced withholding rates on certain types of US-source income instead of the standard 30% rate. Check our compliance guide to see exactly how this connects to your LLC setup.
When your income runs through a US business, "frozen" is not a small word.
Five concrete benefits that protect your business and expand your access to the US financial system.
Without it, you cannot submit your annual return to the IRS, which puts your LLC at risk of penalties. Your ITIN is the identifier that makes you a recognized filer.
Banks and payment processors require a tax ID before opening accounts for non-residents. Your ITIN is the bridge between your Pakistani identity and the US financial system.
These platforms need a valid tax identification number to verify your business identity and release payouts. One ITIN unlocks all three - and prevents holds that can freeze your revenue.
Missing or late reporting can result in fines that cost far more than getting this sorted early. Protect your LLC from IRS enforcement actions before they become a problem.
Pakistan has a tax treaty with the US. With a valid ITIN, you may qualify for reduced withholding rates on certain types of US-source income instead of the standard 30% rate.
With it, you have a real place in the US financial system. The application takes one video call. The protection lasts your entire business life.
One video call with our IRS Certified Acceptance Agent is all it takes to start your ITIN application - no travel, no passport mailing, no guesswork.
The IRS does not make things easy for non-residents. The W-7 form has multiple exception categories, the documentation requirements are specific, and a single error can send your application back to square one - meaning another 7 to 11 weeks of waiting.
But they do make it possible. That is exactly where we come in. Think of it as a bridge between your home in Pakistan and the IRS processing center in Austin, Texas. You handle your business. We handle the IRS.
You upload your documents through a secure channel. No physical copies, no courier charges, no trips to an embassy or consulate. We provide a secure upload link and guide you through exactly which documents to include so nothing is missing.
Our IRS Certified Acceptance Agent (CAA) verifies your identity and reviews your documents over a video call. You do not travel anywhere. You do not hand over your original passport to anyone. We schedule the call at a time that works for you in Pakistan Standard Time - no 3:00 AM alarms to catch an IRS window.
Once your documents are verified, we prepare your W-7 form, identify the correct IRS exception for your situation, and submit everything directly to the IRS under our CAA certification. This is not a standard mail submission. CAA-certified applications are recognized by the IRS as pre-verified, which removes several of the most common rejection reasons.
Your ITIN is issued by the IRS and delivered to you. From document submission to issuance, the typical timeline is 7 to 11 weeks. Once received, your ITIN unlocks US banking, payment processors, Stripe, Payoneer, Amazon Seller Central verification, and your ability to file annual IRS returns.
Money-back guarantee if the IRS rejects your application due to a process error on our end. Our CAA-certified process is built to get it right the first time.
Getting your documents together is the part where most applications either move smoothly or fall apart. Missing one item, or submitting the wrong version of something, causes delays. Here is exactly what you need - nothing more, nothing less.
A clear, legible scan of your Pakistani passport (bio-data page). This is your primary identity document. The original never leaves your hands. Our remote CAA video call replaces the need for a notarized copy - which is the main requirement that makes in-person applications difficult for applicants outside Karachi and Islamabad.
Your Articles of Organization or Certificate of Formation from the state where your LLC is registered - whether that is Wyoming, Delaware, or another state. This establishes your connection to a US-registered business entity and is one of the primary justifications for the IRS Exception category we will apply under.
A recent bank statement or utility bill that confirms your identity and current address. It must be recent - typically within the last three months - and clearly show your full name and address in Pakistan.
We prepare this IRS form on your behalf, including identifying the correct exception category so you do not need to figure that out yourself. The W-7 has multiple exception codes and choosing the wrong one is one of the most common reasons applications are rejected.
The IRS requires a notarized or certified copy of identity documents for non-residents who apply without a CAA. In Pakistan, finding a US-recognized notary outside of Karachi or Islamabad is genuinely difficult. In cities like Faisalabad, Peshawar, or Multan, it is close to impossible.
Our remote CAA video call is not just a convenient feature - for many Pakistani founders, it is the only legal path that actually works.
No hidden steps. No surprise charges after you have already committed. Here is exactly what each package includes.
For founders who already have their EIN and just need the ITIN handled correctly. One clear process, one outcome.
Setting up your US LLC from scratch, or need both numbers at the same time? Most new LLC owners start here - it is easier to get both sorted in one go than to come back for the second one later.
VC-backed startups or multi-member LLCs with three or more partners who need ITINs processed at the same time. If your situation is complicated, we build a custom plan around it.
These are real situations we have helped with. Names are kept general for privacy, but the outcomes and numbers are accurate.
A private label seller had been putting off his ITIN application for almost a year. He was worried about mailing his passport and unsure which IRS exception applied to his LLC structure. We completed his remote verification over a 30-minute video call, submitted under CAA certification, and his ITIN arrived in 8 weeks.
A software developer with a Wyoming LLC had been dealing with repeated payment holds on Payoneer because of missing tax documentation. After getting his ITIN through our service, his account was fully verified and the holds cleared. A Stripe identity verification request that had kept payouts frozen was resolved within 14 days of his ITIN being issued.
A SaaS founder building for the US market needed both an EIN and ITIN ready before an investor meeting. We handled the Premium bundle, ran both applications at the same time, and had everything in place before his first pitch. He did not have to explain his CNIC to anyone - we used his Pakistani passport and LLC documents to meet IRS requirements directly.
Join hundreds of Pakistani founders who secured their ITINs remotely. One video call is all it takes.
Most online ITIN services follow the same basic flow - fill out a W-7, attach your documents, mail everything to the IRS. That works for some people. For Pakistani founders specifically, it creates real problems.
When you apply without a CAA, the IRS requires original or notarized copies of your identity documents. That means either mailing your original Pakistani passport to a processing center in Texas, or finding a US-recognized notary in your city.
Outside of Karachi and Islamabad, that second option barely exists. And the first one means weeks without your primary ID - the same passport you need for travel, banking, and visa applications.
One 30-minute video call replaces the need to mail your passport or find a US-recognized notary. Scheduled in Pakistan Standard Time.
IRS pre-verified applications have a significantly lower rejection rate because documents are confirmed correct before anything is filed.
Getting it right the first time is the only strategy that actually makes sense. Our process is built around zero rejection - not damage control after the fact.

Questions? Chat with a CAA now.An ITIN is a tax processing number the IRS issues to people who have US tax obligations but are not eligible for a Social Security Number. If you own a US LLC, earn income from US sources, or need to file a federal tax return, you need one - it does not matter where you live. Living in Pakistan does not exempt you from IRS filing requirements when your business is registered in the US.
Most Pakistani LLC owners fall under IRS Exception 1(a) (passive income like dividends or royalties) or Exception 1(b) (wages or salary from a US business). We figure out which one applies to your situation before we submit anything. For more on how this fits into your overall LLC obligations, visit our compliance guide.
Yes, and this is something a lot of people do not realize. The IRS has specific exception categories on Form W-7 that let certain applicants get an ITIN without attaching a tax return. As a US LLC owner, you very likely qualify under one of these exceptions - especially if your application is connected to a business need like US banking, payment processing, or a partnership agreement.
We review your specific situation and match you to the right exception before anything goes to the IRS. This is one of the most important things our CAA process handles that a standard self-guided application often gets wrong.
The IRS typically takes 7 to 11 weeks once they receive your application. That timeline is the same whether you apply through a CAA or on your own. The real difference is accuracy. Applications submitted by a Certified Acceptance Agent have a significantly lower rejection rate because documents are pre-verified before submission.
For Pakistani applicants, a rejection is not just a delay - it means restarting the whole process, dealing with new notarization issues, and potentially going another 4 to 6 months without your ITIN. Getting it right the first time is the only strategy that actually makes sense. For information on annual reporting after you receive your ITIN, visit our tax guide.
