BorderFile does not sell registered-agent services or home-country tax services. We coordinate: we know the deadlines, we know which document goes where, and we remind both sides when something needs to move. The result is one dashboard, one contact person on our side, and a clean audit trail across jurisdictions.

FAQ
Annual compliance questions, answered.
When will Annual compliance be available?
We're taking a limited intake while partner EAs/CPAs and home-country CAs are onboarded. Join the waitlist and we'll contact you with pricing and timelines for your jurisdiction.
How are home-country filings handled?
Through vetted partner chartered accountants (CAs) or equivalent credentialed professionals in each supported jurisdiction. The partner handles the local filing; BorderFile owns coordination, document hand-off, and reminders.
Does this include US expert work (1040-NR, notices)?
No — those sit under the expert desk. Many annual-compliance customers also use the expert desk for ad-hoc work.
What countries do you currently coordinate for?
The initial launch covers India (Schedule FA), the UK (self-assessment with foreign-ownership disclosure), the UAE (corporate-tax compliance for foreign-owned entities), and Nigeria (Companies Income Tax and FIRS filings). Other jurisdictions on request.
What if I only need one of these filings, not the full plan?
Each filing is available standalone — see the Form 5472, Form 7004, and Delaware pages. The annual-compliance plan exists to replace a stack of individual engagements with a single calendar and one place to look.
