About these terms
These terms govern your use of the Apni LLC website and any formation service you order from Apni LLC. When you continue from the order summary to payment, you agree to these terms and the plan shown in your order summary.
You must be of legal age to enter a contract. If you place an order for a business or another person, you must have authority to act for them and to provide their information. Review the plan, price, and contact details before you proceed.
What the plans include
Formation includes preparing and submitting the US state formation filing, the state filing fees included in your order, digital formation documents after approval, an IRS Employer Identification Number (EIN) application, and one year of registered agent service.
Formation Plus includes the same services, plus a US mailing address and digital mail scanning for one year, a standard operating agreement template, and first-year state filing reminders. For current prices and inclusions, see the plan comparison.
Services outside your order, such as amendments, foreign qualification, licenses, tax preparation, annual reports, or opening a bank or payment processing account, require a separate arrangement. We’ll disclose any additional charge for work you ask us to perform before you authorize it.
Documents, authorization, and timing
We use the email address and WhatsApp number you provide to confirm your proposed name, filing state, ownership, and the information we need. We may ask for identity or address documents, signatures, and details about the person responsible for the business. Provide complete, accurate information, let us know if it changes, and share another person’s information only when you have authority to do so.
You authorize Apni LLC and the providers assigned to your order to prepare and submit the agreed filings. We’ll ask for any separate signature or authorization the filing requires. If you appoint a third-party designee for your EIN application, that authority is limited to the scope of the signed IRS Form SS-4 authorization. The responsible party must be identified accurately.
We estimate 7–14 days for state formation once we have the information, approvals, and signed documents we need. State processing, name availability, corrections, holidays, and other factors can affect that estimate. EIN processing begins after formation and follows a separate IRS timeline. We’ll send digital copies of the approved formation documents and EIN confirmation as they become available.
We may pause or decline a filing if we cannot verify the information, you cannot provide required documents, or we reasonably believe the request would violate a legal or provider requirement. The cancellation and refund terms below apply if we cannot proceed.
Payment and billing
Your order summary shows the amount due in Pakistani rupees (PKR) and the services included. Checkout collects a one-time payment for the selected package. Stripe processes card payments, and your bank may apply its own fees or currency conversion.
Payment allows us to begin reviewing your order. The state forms your LLC when it approves the filing, and the IRS issues the EIN on its own schedule. Keep your application reference for billing and support. If a charge appears twice or you are unsure whether payment succeeded, contact us before paying again.
Cancellations and refunds
To request a cancellation or refund, email salam@apnillc.com with your application reference and the email address used at checkout. Tell us as soon as possible if you want us to stop a filing. We’ll check the status and tell you what can still be stopped, what work has been done, and what fees have already been paid or committed.
- Before work or nonrecoverable fees. If you cancel before we start work and before we pay or commit any nonrecoverable third-party fees, we’ll refund your payment.
- After work begins or fees are committed. We’ll assess the refundable portion and explain any deduction for work already completed or nonrecoverable state or provider fees, subject to applicable law. Once a filing is submitted, the receiving agency controls whether it can be withdrawn and whether it will return any fee.
- If we cannot complete your order. We’ll explain the reason and, where appropriate, offer a correction or an alternative for your approval. If the order ends, we’ll refund the unused, refundable part of your payment. Any remedy required by applicable law still applies.
Approved refunds go back to the original payment method. The payment processor and your bank determine when the credit appears. If the LLC has already been formed, ending our services does not dissolve it. Dissolution requires a separate filing.
Registered agent, mail, and renewals
The registered agent receives service of process and official notices for your LLC. The separate Formation Plus mailbox handles ordinary business mail and scanning according to the mailbox provider’s terms. Physical forwarding, postage, and handling of restricted mail or parcels may require a separate arrangement.
A registered office or mailing address serves the purpose of that service. Use your actual operating address where a bank, payment provider, or authority requires it. Keep your contact details current and respond promptly to official notices.
After the included year, registered agent and mailbox services renew separately. You are responsible for arranging renewal or replacement before they end, maintaining an eligible registered agent, and updating your addresses with any authorities and senders who need them. Filing reminders are a courtesy. You remain responsible for deadlines even if a reminder is delayed or does not reach you.
Ongoing obligations and third-party decisions
Apni LLC provides administrative filing assistance and general information. For advice specific to your business, consult a qualified legal, tax, or accounting adviser. A standard operating agreement template may need changes for your ownership, management, or tax situation.
You are responsible for applicable US and Pakistani taxes, information returns, reports, licenses, renewals, and records. Requirements can depend on your ownership, where you operate, and what the LLC does.
States decide whether to accept a formation filing. The IRS decides whether to issue an EIN. Banks, Wise, Stripe, marketplaces, and other providers make independent eligibility and account decisions. Formation alone does not guarantee approval, payouts, account access, financing, or immigration status.
Website use and materials
Use the website and services for lawful business activities. Do not misrepresent your identity or authority, submit fraudulent or unauthorized information, interfere with the site, or try to access another customer’s records.
You may use the documents and templates we provide for the business covered by your order. Apni LLC and its licensors retain rights in the website, brand assets, and general materials. We may restrict website access or suspend an order where reasonably necessary for security, suspected fraud, or a legal requirement.
Problems, liability, and your rights
If something goes wrong, email us with your reference and the outcome you’re seeking so we can review the case. You retain any mandatory rights and remedies available under applicable law.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Apni LLC is responsible for direct loss it causes through failure to provide the agreed service. Its aggregate liability arising from an order is limited to the amount you paid for that order, and it is not liable for indirect losses such as lost profit or lost business opportunities. These limits do not apply to fraud, intentional misconduct, or other liability that applicable law does not allow us to exclude or limit.
Updates and contact
We may update these terms for future orders. The terms in effect when you order apply to that order unless we agree to a change with you or the law requires it. If one provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
For order questions, changes, complaints, or a copy of these terms, email salam@apnillc.com. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle personal information.
