Harry's 'complex' is an understatement, Sportstourer. Everywhere you step the land is mined.
My own wee indie publishing house hired an accountant and lawyer and officially registered in the US as BeWrite Books LLC in September. Took us about six months, and not a little expense.
The up-side, though, is that we can now deal direct with the massive new ebook retail stores who exclude publishers without an 'official' US presence and can upload our own carefully produced files rather than using an auto-conversiona aggregator. Makes a world of difference.
But ff you're thinking only in terms of a single title or a handful, you could try to find a trusted pal in the US who will offer his own tax code, SS number and bank details.
Good luck and best wishes. Neil
