Launch your Business with Confidence

LLC stands for Limited Liability Company, you get the straightforward taxation of a sole proprietorship but with the robust liability protection of a corporation. This means your personal assets—like your home and savings—are shielded from business debts and lawsuits. It’s like having the best of both worlds, without the usual headaches.

A single-member LLC is perfect for solo entrepreneurs. This type of LLC has one owner, providing the same benefits of liability protection and pass-through taxation as a multi-member LLC but with simplified management and operations.

No — we specialize in helping non-U.S. residents set up businesses legally in Delaware.

The state of Delaware has many advantages to foreigners who want to incorporate and register their business including:

Business-Friendly Laws & Legal Framework

• Established Legal System: Delaware has a long-standing reputation for its corporate-friendly laws and a mature legal framework that provides clear guidance for businesses.

• Specialized Court of Chancery: The Delaware Court of Chancery handles only corporate disputes, offering judges with deep expertise in corporate law for efficient and predictable outcomes, a key advantage for businesses.

Tax Advantages

• No State Corporate Income Tax: Corporations that do not operate within Delaware are not subject to state corporate income tax.

• No Inheritance Tax on Stock: Non-residents who hold stock in Delaware corporations are generally not subject to Delaware's inheritance tax.

• No Sales Tax: Delaware does not have a state sales tax, which can be a significant advantage for businesses.

Corporate Privacy

• Confidentiality: Delaware does not require companies to disclose the names of their owners, directors, or officers in public records, offering a high level of privacy for businesses and their stakeholders.

Having a registered agent is required by law and must maintain a physical address and keep regular business hours in the state, which, since you do not live in the United States, are requirements you cannot meet. You must maintain a Delaware registered agent at all times to keep your Delaware company in good standing. (Being in “good standing” essentially means maintaining the ability to legally operate in the state.) Since most of our foreign clients don’t maintain a residence in the United States (let alone in Delaware), the easiest way to secure a registered agent is to hire a professional registered agent service. This is included in the business registration package.

A Registered Agent Mailing Address is a legal requirement when you register a U.S. company. This is the official address where the state can send legal documents, notices, and compliance reminders. Every company must have one, and it cannot be substituted with a virtual address.

A Virtual Mailing Address, on the other hand, is an additional service that gives you a U.S. mailing address for business correspondence. It’s useful if you want to receive mail, packages, or client communications in the U.S. without needing a physical office. This address is not used for official state or legal documents, but rather for business operations and credibility.

In short:

• Registered Agent Address = for legal/government correspondence (mandatory).

• Virtual Mailing Address = for general business mail (optional, but helpful for a professional presence).

NOTE: In our business registration package we include both for the first year.

An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is like a Social Security number for your business. You need it to open a business bank account, hire staff, and file taxes. After the state sends verification that your articles of organization (LLCs) or articles of incorporation (corporations) have been processed, you can apply for an EIN but as a foreigner you cannot apply for an EIN which is why we do it for you and include it as part of our business registration service.

The process can take up to 6 weeks to register and receive all documents. An expedited service is available for an additional fee.

Yes — once your EIN and formation documents are complete, you’re ready to open a bank account and begin operating your business.

No. You can register a U.S. business even if you live abroad. Many international entrepreneurs choose Delaware because of its business-friendly laws, and we’ll guide you through that process from anywhere in the world.

Yes, but it can be tricky. Some banks require you to open a bank account in person and others allow international entrepreneurs to open U.S. business bank accounts remotely.

We can take care of this for you and have this as an optional upgrade in the done-for-you business registration package.
