For fees and tax purposes, the LLC is probably your best choice. An Alaska LLC will only get taxed once, in the form of personal income taxes for each member. An Alaska Corporation will be subject to double taxation: first through a state corporate tax, and second on the individual tax returns of shareholders.

Beyond your federal EIN, you'll also need an Alaska business license, which costs $50 per year for each business name under which you operate. If you have one legal name plus a DBA, you'll need two business licenses for $100. You may also need to register for state business taxes specific to your industry.

LLC members' income is taxed at the 15.3% federal self-employment tax rate (12.4% for social security and 2.9% for Medicare). Alaska is the only state with both no personal income tax and no sales tax, but your LLC may need to pay taxes to your local municipality or borough.
