【讨论】想做中美加外贸
来加拿大快5年了,现在刚入籍,来加拿大移民换身份的目的就是想做中美加外贸,这几年曾去纽约,拉斯维加斯,洛杉矶的会展做了考察,对美国这个“永远都吃不饱”的大市场有了一定的信心,现在个人想法先在加拿大注册一间外贸进出口公司,然后再在洛杉矶注册一间分公司并租个仓库,持L1签证去美国运作,因为我是第一次做外贸,希望在这方面有经验者能给于些提示,也可留言到我的信箱 raymond_zhaoxu@hotmail.com 欢迎有志于从事外贸的朋友共同探讨,共同进步!

按我的理解,任何加拿大公民在美国都可以租仓库,也都可以注册公司,就是没有社会安全号,要申请社会安全号,需要有E2 或 L1 签证 (这里提及的签证只是以商业为目的,其它F H J 等签证就不提了),上面提及的 “人在加拿大,在美国租仓库” 我想有2种情形,第一:与有美国绿卡或公民合作公司,用美国人的社会安全号在美国银行开商业户头,这样才能做到DDP运输。 第二:在加拿大有注册公司,在美国只是租个仓库,也同时做为公司地址,在美参展时用加拿大公司的名义与客户签约,然后货从中国发到美国来。这种情形可能没有美国银行户头,所以只能做到: 例如: FOB上海 或 CIF洛杉矶, 但要想做到DDP洛杉矶,就需要有在美国注册公司,有社会安全号,有公司银行户头,还要有美国海关的注册号,这样的话,汇款 或 信用证就直接到加拿大公司户头。 我的理解对吗?烦请经验人士指点,或发到我的邮箱,希望能交个朋友共同探讨! |

看得出来,你是花了时间调研的。 我们这种情况是要办 L1-A 或 E-2。L1-A申请绿卡更快一些。不知你是 准备到美国常住还是偶尔去?如果只是偶尔去,那就无所谓了。但我们 因为生意的原因,需要常住。原先我们也考虑加州的,但因为加州 地震,风险较大。另外,因为美国是要自己买医疗保险的,所以我们 认为还是离加拿大进一些,经常进出加拿大,只在美国买一些紧急情况 的保险就可以了。 有一本书是写给那些常在美国度假的加拿大的雪鸟的,多我们这种两边做生意的人会有帮助,在报税,投资等。大概题目是:"Cross Border--- Canadian living, investing and working in united states". 希望我们能多交流。共享信息。 |

The Border Guide: A Canadian's Guide to Living, Working, and Investing in the United States By Robert Keats Price: This item is not available for purchase from this store. Click here to go to Amazon to see other purchasing options. 6 new or used available from CDN$ 37.09 Average customer review: Product Description - For "snowbirds" and permanent residents - Save money with sound cross-border financial planning - Get the bes In this informative guide, noted financial planner and columnist Bob Keats teaches you everything you need to know about cross-border financial p - Avoid getting caught by fluctuations in Canadian currency - Qualify for old-age and social security benefits on both sides of the border - Get the best from both the Canadian and U.S. medical systems -- without the disadvantages of either - Buy a retirement home and deduct the mortgage interest from your Canadian tax return - Receive your Canadian pensions in the U.S. almost tax-free! - Make U.S.-based investments that are exempt from U.S. income tax and filing requirements - Use the new U.S. estate planning techniques available in each country. Applied to your own specific needs and goals, these cross-border planning opportunities can reap great financial rewards for you and your heirs. Cross-border financial planning encompasses all the basic individual financial planning requirements of both Canada and the United States in the areas of net worth, cash flow, risk management, retirement goals, taxation, estate planning and investments. It analyzes each area according to your particular situation, and then weighs option against option, completes timely currency conversions, factors in your immigration status, examines applicable tax treaty rules, and develops a road map for you to follow to achieve your financial goals with maximum income, safety and tax savings. One of the major difficulties inherent in cross-border financial planning is that the rules change depending on immigration status and in which direction the cross-border movement is going. For example, a winter visitor to the United States who marries a U.S. resident dramatically alters his or her financial planning options, and a new cross-border financial plan becomes necessary in order to take advantage of new opportunities and to avoid any costly mistakes. Figure 1.1 lists all the major immigration status options. All the important planning issues for each respective status category are discussed in detail in subsequent chapters of this book. HOW LONG CAN YOU REMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES AS A VISITOR? Few things cause more confusion and controversy among visitors to the United States than how long they can legally remain in that country without breaking any rules. The source of this confusion is primarily the fact that there are at least four sets of rules governed by various government agencies that deal with residency. These residency rules sometimes conflict, and adherence to one set of rules does not automatically mean compliance with the others. The four sets of rules that tell you how much time you can legally spend in the United States as a visitor are the following: Figure 1.1 1. The Immigration Rules. Canadian visitors to the United States may enter the country without any actual visa being issued. However, in the post-9/11 World Trade Center/Pentagon terrorist attack era, this privilege may be changed or eliminated with current and pending rules from the new U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Review the next section of this chapter: Crossing the 49th Parallel Will No Longer Be Easy. Technically, Canadian visitors currently fall into the B-2 visitor category (or B-1 for those entering for busines New rules that came into effect in April 1997 and that were heightened by the 9/11 attacks give low-level immigration officials at U.S. borders greater powers. They have the right to act as prosecutor, court reporter and judge in order to refuse entry to the United States for up to five years or more to those persons they feel are not telling them the truth about why they want to enter the United States. Hundreds of Canadians have been refused entry to the United States under these new rules without the right to appeal, as U.S. border agents, spurred by the new law, become more vigilant. With the new technology that is being implemented at border crossings (discussed later in this chapter), it is very likely that all immigration officials, regardless of which direction you are crossing the border, will know how, when, and where you crossed the border every single time you did so for the past several years, regardless of which direction you were going. Chapter 7 provides further direction for those Canadian visitors who wish to become green card holders, technically known as legal permanent residents of the United States. It also discusses other, less permanent visas. 2. The Income Tax Rules. Generally speaking, a person will be classified as a U.S. resident for tax purposes if he is regularly present in the country for more than four months each year under the s purposes), allowing them to remain in the United States legally for up to six consecutive months. The B-1 business visitors can conduct business on behalf of their Canadian employers only and all compensation must come from the Canadian side of the border. Business visitors are likely to fall into one of the income-tax filing requirements discussed in Chapter 3, particularly if the U.S. entity for which they are working reimburses the Canadian company for services rendered and the business visitor expenses. Extensions to the six-month limit, primarily for medical reasons, may be granted by applying to the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS, formerly the INS). However, BCIS is taking so long to process these extensions currently that even if you applied for the extension the day you arrived in the United States, it already would have expired by the time it was granted. If you leave the United States and re-enter at any border crossing, including those between Mexico and the United States, the six-month clock starts over again with each re-entry. This does not mean you can legally keep leaving the United States and re-entering every six months perpetually because you want to change from a casual visitor to a resident. You will be stopped from re-entering the country if it appears that you may have taken up permanent residency, and you may be asked to show proof that you have not done so. Proof that you have not become a U.S. resident can be whatever the immigration official at the border decides, but it will likely include one or more of such simple things as your last three monthslanning.

Many Canadians and Americans incorrectly assume that the laws governing investment, taxation, and immigration are the same in both countries. They are not. And that's why The Border Guide: A Canadian's Guide To Living, Working, And Investing In The United States is such a timely and necessary book recommended to the attention of all Canadians coming into the United States for reasons of work, education, travel, investment, or residence. Thoroughly "user friendly", The Border Guide will help anyone from getting disadvantaged by the fluctuations between Canadian and American currency; quality for old-age and social security benefits on either side of the border; obtain the best that the Canadian and US medical systems have to offer; receive Canadian pensions in the US almost tax free; even how to buy a retirement home and deduct the mortgage interest from Canadian tax returns. All these and so much more make The Border Guide a "must" read for US bound Canadians! |
