Me and my cofounder are non-US residents and live in Germany. If we get into YC, what would a typical / recommended way to proceed be?

We haven’t established a company in Germany yet, we want to be strategic and make what’s best to succeed.

From what I know we can do the batch with our current tourist visa, so I’d like to know more about the post batch options. Being US based or Germany based is an option for us.

Thanks in advance

There was a blogpost from someone from germany who got accepted. I looked it up for you: https://web.archive.org/web/20220604131034/https://richventu...

There is also a post on hackernews about it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31601638 And there is a Ask HN that could be helpful: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31620700

You should still create a US C-Corp, ideally in Delaware.
