What should the US LLC do ? It will end up being treated like a GMBH in Germany (keyword : Typenvergleich ) and you will have to do all the bureaucracy in the us + Germany and end up paying the same taxes

The point I thought was a plus was that you'd be paying German taxes without all the German bureaucracy? Because there's definitely no bureaucracy for a Wyoming LLC except for a couple of IRS forms annually.
Unfortunately it doesn't work like that. You are just adding us bureaucracy+ dual accounting (euro/USD) to German bureaucracy where nothing changes .
My point is that US bureaucracy is very minimal - like I said, just need to submit a couple of forms to the IRS as a foreign-owned LLC.
from what I know this is very much possible, you can also use tax treaties to transfer taxation to Germany.
e.g. Irish Ltd that is a resident in Germany
you won't have to bother with the naming problems etc. either
