Hello, I will start business in Delaware, US for the purpose of trading financial contracts on my own account. I am non-US citizen/resident and whole process will be remote. Could you please advice me a brokerage firm for this?
What country are the owners from? Will you have a real address in the USA? Will you have a bank account in the USA? These are some of the questions I would ask to see if we are a good fit. You can contact me directly if you wish.
Sole owner - from Turkey Only business adress which will be provided by the registering agency Bank account will be opened over Relayfi.com Thank you in advance, Gorkem

I found that most US brokers don't wanna touch any foreign owned entity. I think IB is the rare exception. Good luck with it though.
We have many foreign accounts, but to us, this would be a domestic account with foreign ownership. The owner can't be from a restricted country and the domestic entity will require an address where you can get mail and a US based bank account.
