I tried opening a US business account in 18 EMIs, here's the result

I tried to do so, but they're asking for a shareolder list document that LLC cannot provide. Any suggestion?
In short: Explain to them how it is with US LLCs.
More detailed: Can you quote exactly what they wrote to you? It is pretty possible that their request can be fulfilled, in fact.

Side-note: Paysera is not a UK EMI, it is a Lithuanian company. Yet they have a UK subsidiary Paysera LTD.

Yes, here's their answer to my application:

– First answer
Please provide official registry link of company registration country where we could be able to see information about company's responsible person, company number, status and shareholders.
Please provide official registry extract in English signed by registry e-signature with above mentioned information.

Or provide official registry extract in English with above mentioned information verified by notary apostille (notary has to certify not only signature or copy true, but also that content is correct) and official registry link of company registration country where we could be able to see information about company's responsible person, company number, status and shareholders.

– Second answer
In USA each state has own register where from you can provide the exact link and as well official registry extract in English signed by registry e-signature.
Otherwise we can not open account

I sent him the page about my company in my state website, where you can search for your company, but they answered: "as we mentioned above it is not sufficient."

It looks like they're trying to find a official page/document where they can see both the company name and the beneficial owner name. Not possible with Wyoming, Delaware or New Mexico companies.

I have a US LLC, am non-resident in the US, and signed up to 18 different EMIs.

This is the result after a week:
  1. 3S Money - Asked for $20 to process my application + it charges $100 a month for having the account open
  2. Airwallex - Approved
  3. Brex - Rejected because I have no venture capital (startup focused apparently)
  4. Currenxie - Doesn't offer services to US businesses
  5. Juni.co - Doesn't offer services to US businesses
  6. Mercury - Application still pending
  7. Novel - Application still pending
  8. Payoneer - Wants the withdrawal account to be in the LLCs name (no point having the account then)
  9. Paypal - Doesn't offer services to US businesses to non-residents
  10. Paysera - Doesn't offer services to US businesses
  11. Payset - Doesn't offer services to US businesses
  12. Relay - Won't accept my proof of address because it's not in english. Support doesn't answer through e-mail
  13. Revolut - Doesn't offer services to US businesses
  14. Satchel - Asked way too many questions about where funds would come from, how much and where they would go to before even opening the account
  15. Stratys - Doesn't offer services to US businesses
  16. VertoFX - Application still pending
  17. Wallter - Asked for 500 EUR to open the account
  18. Wise - Approved
Hopefully this helps others in the future.
how's going with your account opening of all 18 emi's - what this a joke ?
 
I have a personal account on paysera, but I cannot see an option to create a USD account. I only have an EUR one now.
Paysera's virtual account is multicurrency, which means that you can keep money in several currencies at once.
