What are the steps of moving to Silicon Valley for a UK startup?

質問

We are an IT security startup based in London. We would like to relocate our business to California, where most of our early customers are. As a limited company, do we need to re-incorporate in the States? What are other steps to take? Thank you!

You could open a branch office, which means you don't need to reincorporate. Just have an individual living here (not so cheap, BTW). Or you could register a company with the state ($800 per year), and you will need to have a business license in the city where you actually have your company. I'm not sure if all cities charge the same, but I paid just over $100 the first year, and $20 or so the following years. You could also consider moving to a nearby state if you don't have to meet your customers daily. Arizona generally has lower costs, and it is cheap and easy to get to California.
My answer may not be complete, so it would be good if one or two lawyers could chip in, too.
