The Truth About Incorporating In Delaware

Delaware is a great place to incorporate, but is it for you?

The great state of Delaware was one of the first during the last half of the nineteenth century to pass legislation that was extremely business-friendly, and remains a corporate haven to the present day.

It’s small wonder that nearly 60% of all Fortune 500 companies and over 50% of public U.S. corporations are registered in Delaware. With well over a century of experience, Delaware has the most extensive body of corporate case law of any state in the Union.

Legal matters related to corporations in Delaware are overseen by Delaware’s Chancery Court - which is a “court of equity” as opposed to a “court of law.” As such, there is no jury. All legal decisions are rendered in writing by the judge (known as a “chancellor” in this case), and cases tend to move more quickly through the system. Whereas a Court of Law can provide only monetary relief on a given issue, a Chancery Court can actually issue injunctions prohibiting or requiring a course of action – which is very handy when a major acquisition or hostile takeover is imminent.

Delaware law also allows for some flexibility if yours is a business that offers more than one type of service. For example, perhaps you make part of your living as a computer graphic designer, part of it as a professional blogger, and yet another part of it fixing motorcycles – and on top of that, you get royalties from published writings and play guitar in a country-western band on the weekends. This can make for some very complicated bookkeeping, and technically necessitates the formation of a separate business entity for each.

Delaware law allows you to create what is known as a “Serial LLC,” which can cover several lines of business under one entity while treating them separately from each other for purposes of liability. Originally, the purpose of Delaware’s Series LLC law was to allow money management funds to operate as LLCs. Today, people who own multiple rental and/or investment properties are using this law to simplify their own bookkeeping and avoid the necessity of creating a separate entity for each. You can read the full text of Delaware’s Series LLC Law at http://www.delcode.state.de.us/title6/c018/sc02/index.htm . You’ll probably want to consult with your tax advisor, who can tell you exactly how formation of a Serial LLC can help you in your state, if at all.

Beyond that, other advantages include a relatively low initial fee for incorporating, which may be under $90. Should you decide to issue stock, you’ll also find that such shares are tax exempt in Delaware, providing you – as the owner of the corporation – do not reside there.

These tips will help you in choosing a state to incorporate in and see if Delaware matches with your business needs.
