What does Delaware require after you form an LLC?
Delaware requires no annual report but an annual LLC tax ($400 to the state) and a registered agent at all times, and, with no statewide sales tax, no state sales tax registration.
Annual LLC tax
$400 to the state. Delaware charges a flat annual LLC tax due June 1 rather than a report. Late payment adds $200 plus interest. More on the Delaware annual LLC tax.
Sales tax registration
Delaware has no sales tax, so there is no reseller permit. Delaware instead has a gross receipts tax and a separate business license. More on Delaware reseller permits.
Registered agent
Every Delaware LLC has to name one. It can be you at no cost if you have a street address in the state. Ours is $99 a year and optional, with no first year that quietly becomes a renewal.
Trade name, if you use one
Delaware registers trade names at the county level, so there is no single state fee. Delaware registers trade names with the Prothonotary in each county. Contact us and we will quote it by hand.
