Plan with the details in view
What Are the Main Delaware LLC Requirements?
Delaware LLCs and corporations follow different filing rules. Official references reviewed 19 October 2026; confirm the current instructions for your entity and tax year.
Delaware LLC formation cost
The state’s LLC formation instructions list a $110 filing fee. FormLLC service fees, registered-agent terms, certified copies and optional expedited handling are separate items to confirm in your order.
LLC annual tax, without an annual report
Delaware’s current LLC instructions specify a $400 annual tax due by June 1 for the prior year. LLCs do not submit an annual report to the Division of Corporations. Verify the relevant year and any overdue balance.
Corporation annual report and franchise tax
Domestic corporations generally have a March 1 annual report and franchise-tax deadline. Foreign corporations have separate reporting instructions. Identify the entity category before using a deadline or estimating its charges.
How to continue
How Do You Prepare a Delaware LLC Filing?
Preparing the filing comes down to four steps, from your first details to a confirmed filing.
- 01
Describe the company
Tell FormLLC whether you want a new LLC, a corporation, foreign registration or support for an existing record.
- 02
Prepare the filing details
Organize the proposed name, authorized person, agent arrangements and relevant existing company information.
- 03
Confirm the service and fees
Review the selected work, government charges, agent coverage and any separately engaged tax or legal advice.
- 04
Keep the next task visible
Retain the filed documents and track the entity’s annual tax or report separately from licenses and other tax returns.
Before requesting help
What Details Do You Need for a Delaware LLC Filing?
Have these details ready before you ask us to help with the filing.
- Company type, proposed name and the places where it will actually operate.
- For an existing company: exact legal name, jurisdiction, file number and current status.
- Registered-agent arrangements and the specific formation, report or update requested.
- Relevant tax year, deadline or notice, plus any work already completed.
Know which filing you need
Plan beyond the Delaware filing.
Keep the company record, operating-state requirements and separate tax work in view.
- Where the business operates
- Forming in Delaware does not itself settle registration, tax or licensing requirements elsewhere. Review the company’s actual locations and activity.
- What each service covers
- Entity formation, annual entity tax, income-tax work and agent renewals are different tasks. Confirm which are included in your written FormLLC scope.
A formation choice is not a guaranteed tax saving, bank approval or substitute for advice on your company’s circumstances.
Questions answered
Delaware formation and compliance questions
Can FormLLC help me register an LLC in Delaware?
Discuss the proposed LLC, operating locations and work you need. FormLLC will confirm the accepted formation scope, required details, service fee and separate government or third-party charges before you proceed.
How much does Delaware charge to form an LLC?
The state’s current Certificate of Formation instructions list a $110 filing fee. This is a government charge, not the complete FormLLC package price. Confirm additional services, agent terms and optional document or processing charges separately.
Does a Delaware LLC file an annual report?
No annual report is required for an LLC by the Delaware Division of Corporations. Its annual tax is a separate obligation; use the LLC instructions rather than the corporation annual report process.
What is the current Delaware LLC annual tax and deadline?
Current Delaware instructions and LLC law specify $400 annually, normally due June 1 for the previous year. Confirm the applicable year, company status and any overdue charges before payment.
Do I need a registered agent in Delaware?
Delaware requires a registered agent with a physical street address in the state. Confirm who is providing that service, what it covers and its renewal terms; an agent appointment is not automatically a full office or general mail service.
Is a Delaware corporation’s annual report due on June 1?
The LLC annual-tax deadline should not be used for corporations. Delaware’s guidance lists March 1 for domestic corporation annual reports and franchise tax, with separate instructions for foreign corporations.
Does forming in Delaware remove tax or registration duties in another state?
Do not assume that it does. Where the business operates, its activity and the owners’ circumstances may create other obligations. Review foreign qualification, licensing and tax questions separately before selecting a formation state.
