Legal requirement

Core LLC and legal documents

The legal contract between your Australian parent company and the US LLC. It defines the relationship, sets the pricing terms for goods sold between entities, and establishes who is responsible for what. Without this, the IRS has no basis to treat your US entity as a legitimate distributor.

Documents the pricing methodology used between your Australian and US entities. It explains why the margin your US LLC earns is commercially reasonable. This is what the IRS reviews if they question whether your intercompany pricing is legitimate or artificially structured to shift profits.

Provides the documentation that US Customs and Border Protection needs to verify the declared value of your imported goods. When you sell through an LLC at arm's-length pricing, the customs value is the intercompany price, not the retail price. This document supports that valuation and reduces your duty exposure.

Defines how money flows between your Australian parent and the US LLC each month. It tracks what the US entity owes, what it has paid, and what remains outstanding. A clean ledger is essential for year-end filing and gives your CPA exactly what they need without guesswork.

Ongoing compliance

Additional supporting documents

A monthly check that confirms your US LLC's margin stays within the agreed range. If the margin drifts too high or too low, it flags the issue before it becomes a compliance problem. This is the ongoing discipline that keeps your transfer pricing defensible over time.

A year-end summary package designed to hand directly to your CPA. It includes all intercompany transactions, margin history, and supporting schedules so your accountant can prepare the US tax return without chasing documents or reconstructing data.

Monitors your sales volume by US state to determine where you have sales tax obligations. Each state has different thresholds. This tracks your exposure so you know exactly when you need to register and collect sales tax in a new state, before you get a surprise notice.

Covers the IRS reporting requirements for foreign-owned US entities, including Form 5472. This form discloses transactions between your Australian parent and the US LLC. Filing late or incorrectly carries a $25,000 penalty per form, so accuracy here is critical.
