Do foreign-owned U.S. LLCs need to file federal taxes if they had zero revenue?
Foreign-owned U.S. LLCs must file annual federal and state tax returns to stay compliant.
This generally includes **Form 5472** (officially, **Information Return of a 25% Foreign-Owned US Corporation or a Foreign Corporation Engaged in US Trade or Business**) and an annual federal tax return such as **Form 1120** or **Form 1120-S**. This filing requirement applies regardless of income.
It’s common for businesses to change their ownership structure or add additional members/shareholders. If you change ownership of your LLC, that change may require additional IRS documentation and may trigger **IRS Form 8832** and updated **Form 5472** and **Form 1120** filings.
