USA Nonresident alien income tax

[dkemp]

Greetings everyone.

- I am a nonresident alien

- owner of a sole-member LLC which works online.

- The LLC sells hotel room nights in Mexico to US citizens. The inventory is bought from a wholesaler in Europe.

- The LLC does not have any employees nor an office in the US.

I don't understand if my income is an Effectively Connected Income (ECI) and so I have to pay taxes in the US or in my own country of residency.

Thank you

Where is the LLC incorporated?

It's incorporated in Delaware

A single member LLC is a passthrough entity which passes through to the individual. As a non-resident alien, do you also file US tax returns?

What are the rules on ECI? I haven't dealt with that.
