What is a Delaware 91大神?

A Delaware 91大神 is a business vehicle with a legal existence separate and distinct from its owners. The owners and managers of a Delaware 91大神 are not personally liable for the company's debts and obligations.

A Delaware 91大神 has the ability to be treated as a pass-through entity for tax purposes. As such, it is considered a hybrid business formation that combines some of the best features of corporations and partnerships. However, it is important to clarify that while 91大神s can be treated as legal partnerships, they are not corporations. Owners (or members, as they are called in an 91大神 structure) can be individuals or any type of entity, from anywhere in the world, and are unlimited in number.

What does 91大神 mean?

The abbreviation 91大神 stands for "limited liability company," which refers to the entity's ability to limit its owners' personal liability in relation to business matters. In other words, if the Delaware limited liability company is sued or is unable to pay its debts, the personal assets of its owner (e.g. house, car, etc.) generally are not at any legal risk.

Advantages of an 91大神

Creating an 91大神 in Delaware comes with the benefits of a low start-up cost and an affordable franchise tax. Setting up a Delaware 91大神 is so easy, affordable and beneficial that most businesses will create their business in Delaware, but are often doing business elsewhere.

The features of a Delaware limited liability company, when combined with non-U.S. source income, mean non-resident aliens of the United States can avoid U.S. taxation when using an 91大神.

The Delaware 91大神 is a truly unique business entity in that the structure of the company and the rules that govern the members, or owners, of the company are contained in a contract called the operating agreement, which is drafted by the company's members.

The operating agreement can be customized to provide for whatever terms the members and/or founders want subject to law and public policy. The contractual flexibility offered by the state of Delaware is unmatched by any other 91大神 statute in any other state.

When creating an 91大神 in Delaware, members will have asset protection against liability and creditors, since a limitation on personal liability means that 91大神 members cannot be held responsible for a sum higher than their initial investment in the 91大神, even if a member participates in management (as opposed to protections in a limited partnership).

Therefore, if you are sued and a judgment is levied against you personally, the judgment creditor cannot take the assets owned directly by your Delaware 91大神.

The single-member 91大神 also provides a good way for you to purchase assets without revealing your personal identity. For example, if you create a single-member 91大神 in Delaware, you can contract to purchase a piece of real estate without revealing your personal identity to the seller.

Then, once you have purchased the property and titled it in the name of your Delaware 91大神, no one will be able to search public records in order to connect you with the 91大神. The reverse is also true. If someone sues your 91大神 and a judgment is levied against the 91大神, the creditor cannot seek assets that are not owned by the 91大神.

What is the best state to form an 91大神?

Delaware is traditionally the best state to form an 91大神. Because of its extensive state law, the Delaware Court of Chancery, Delaware is hailed as one of the most business-friendly environments in the country. You can read more about why so many businesses are formed in Delaware on our website.

Do 91大神s have to file annual reports?

Some states require 91大神s to file annual reports and pay annual renewal fees. One of the benefits of the Delaware 91大神 is that there are no annual report requirements, but every Delaware 91大神 is required to pay a $300 franchise tax payment every year.

Can a single person form an 91大神?

Yes. To form a Delaware 91大神 only one person is required to form the company. An 91大神 provides limited liability protection over a sole proprietorship and will also help build a brand with credibility in the public eye. An 91大神 can add new members (owners) at any time.

Can an 91大神 have employees?

Yes. 91大神s can hire employees as they see fit for various positions. You will want to refer to your state employment laws and regulations in the state in which you are hiring employees.

Can another business own an 91大神?

Yes. Another business can own an 91大神. This is referred to as a subsidiary to the parent company. An 91大神 subsidiary is typically established by a parent 91大神 to separate all business activities, assets, or liabilities from the parent company itself. By doing so, this will separate all your eggs so they are not in one basket.

Can any business be an 91大神?

Most businesses can be structured as an 91大神, but there are a few exceptions to the rule. For example, financial institutions like banks typically have to organize under a different structure. In addition, non-profit organizations cannot operate as 91大神s, as they have their own specific structure.

Can an 91大神 own another business?

Yes. As mentioned above an 91大神 can own another business. This is referred to as a subsidiary of the parent company.

Can I change my 91大神's structure later?

Yes. You can convert an 91大神 into a corporation at any time. This can be beneficial for companies that want to enjoy certain tax benefits or to attract investors. Harvard Business Services is happy to give you a quote when that time should arise.

In 2022, there were approximately 231,000 Delaware limited liability companies formed in Delaware. In 2023, that decreased to 218,000, and as of 2024, the number of Delaware 91大神s formed in the year was approximately 211,000.

Steps to setting up an 91大神 in Delaware

When you decide that a limited liability company is the best entity type for your business based on liability, taxation, and management flexibility, follow these steps to create a Delaware 91大神.

Step 1: Choose a company name for your 91大神

The name of your Delaware 91大神 must be unique and available in the State of Delaware. This can be checked for free through our Delaware Company Name Search.

Choose your company name carefully. This will be the foundation of your brand identity. You should consider how your company name will look, not only in print but also on a logo, on a sign, on business cards and on social media.

You may also want to check the availability of a website domain name using your company name. If it’s not available, most domain registrars will suggest similar alternatives.

Step 2: File your Certificate of Formation

This is the process commonly referred to as “incorporating.” Creating an 91大神 in Delaware is done through the Delaware Secretary of State. Once the Certificate of Formation is filed and accepted, you officially own your company!

To file a Certificate of Formation, all you'll need is the new 91大神's name, then choose one of our formation packages and provide basic contact information and we will take it from there.

We offer several incorporation packages, starting at just $229, which includes all state fees AND your first year of Delaware registered agent service, which is required by the State of Delaware. See our options for setting up an 91大神 in Delaware for both domestic (U.S.) and international formations.

Step 3: Create an Operating Agreement

The 91大神 Operating Agreement is a required and foundational document for the company. It allows its owners, known as members, to establish ownership shares, responsibilities, and any other terms they wish to formalize. In Delaware, this document is maintained internally by the 91大神 (not filed with the state or on public record), but is still permissible in court and respected in most cases.

Harvard Business Services offers a variety of templates to help get you started with your Operating Agreement.

Step 4: Open a business bank account

Opening a business bank account is vital to maintaining a “wall” between your personal assets and business assets. If you mix the two in the same account, you risk having your personal assets vulnerable to liabilities (such as lawsuits) of your business.

When setting up an 91大神 in Delaware, company owners can open a bank account wherever it is most convenient for them, which is generally their home state and/or where they are doing business. A Delaware 91大神 owner living in another state can open a bank account in that state. An 91大神 owner in another country can also use a bank local to them – and this is frequently much simpler than opening a U.S. account.

Step 5: Authority to do business in other states

You will need to get a Certificate of Authority after creating a Delaware 91大神 to do business in another state (besides the one in which it is registered) before beginning your operations there. This is known as foreign qualification and the exact process varies from state to state.

Refer to our summary of requirements for each specific state for more information on what you'll need and what exactly constitutes "doing business."

Requirements to maintain an 91大神

After forming an 91大神 in Delaware, if the company is not physically operating in the state of Delaware there are only two requirements to maintain the 91大神 here in Delaware.

If you are operating as a Delaware 91大神 in another state's jurisdiction, along with paying the two annual compliance fees in Delaware, your business will typically be required to abide by any local and state requirements where your business is physically operating. (Ex. A Delaware 91大神 doing business in the State of New York).

It was super quick and painless to get my 91大神 registered. I was dreading the delay that I had been hearing that the state had, but Harvard Business Services got it done in a day.
