I will do msb registration with fincen for foreign company
About this Gig
As a professional consultant, I specialize in helping foreign entities and non-US residents register their businesses as Money Services Businesses (MSBs) with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
Operating a business that involves money transfers, currency exchange, or check cashing without proper federal registration can lead to severe legal issues. I simplify this complex regulatory process, ensuring your business stays compliant with US federal laws.
Why MSB Registration is Essential:
- Legal Compliance: Mandatory for any entity providing money services.
- Banking Access: Most US banks require FinCEN registration to open a business account.
- Trust: Increases credibility with your international clients and partners.
What I Require from You:
To complete the registration, you will need to provide:
- Company Documents (Articles of Organization/Incorporation)
- Official Company Name
- Physical Business Address
- Company Tax ID (EIN)
- Owners Passport/ID
Note: Please message me before placing an order to discuss your specific business structure and ensure all your documents are ready for submission.

FAQ
Do I need a US LLC to register as an MSB?
No, you do not necessarily need a US-based entity. FinCEN allows foreign-located money services businesses to register as "Foreign-Located MSBs" if they conduct business within the United States. However, having a US LLC can often make the process smoother for banking.
How long does the MSB registration process take?
The registration itself is usually processed by FinCEN within 5 to 10 business days. However, gathering the correct documentation and ensuring your compliance details are accurate is the most important part, which is where my expertise helps.
Does this registration include a state-level Money Transmitter License (MTL)?
No. This service is for Federal Registration with FinCEN. State-level licensing (MTL) is a separate, more complex process required by individual US states. Most international clients start with federal FinCEN registration to achieve basic compliance.
Will I get a physical certificate from FinCEN?
FinCEN does not issue paper certificates. Once registered, your business will appear in the official FinCEN MSB Registration Search database. I will provide you with a copy of the Registration Acknowledgement and your MSB Registration Number.
What is the validity of the MSB registration?
An MSB registration is valid for two years. You must renew your registration every two years by December 31st of the second year. I can assist you with renewals when the time comes!
Do I need an EIN (Tax ID) before we start?
Yes, an EIN is required for the filing. If you don't have one yet, please let me know, and I can guide you on how to obtain it or offer it as a custom add-on to our project.
