Registration of a company in the USA, Delaware (LLC)

The state of Delaware has a good geographical position and is different. A significant number of IT projects sooner or later move to the US to register and open a firm in Delaware, enter the US market and attract investment in their project.

The advantages that Delaware has are not shared by all states. It is characterized by progressive business law and conditional ease of registration:

  • the same person can hold the positions of director, incorporator and officer;
  • the director and founders do not necessarily have to have U.S. citizenship, legal shareholders are allowed;
  • the possibility of opening a bank account without being tied to a specific bank;
  • holding meetings of founders remotely from anywhere in the world;
  • the parties are not required to be physically present in Delaware at the time of incorporation, the presence of an authorized agent will suffice;
  • no minimum capital requirement;
  • lowest cost of incorporation compared to other U.S. states.

Privacy 

The Wyoming Public Company Registry only has information available about the company's registration agent. There is no director or shareholder information available.
