About Delaware LLC Formation from India
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
A Delaware LLC is formed online by filing a Certificate of Formation through a Delaware registered agent; non-residents can do this from India. After formation you need an operating agreement, an EIN from the IRS (available without an SSN), and a US bank account. Every Delaware LLC pays a flat annual tax due on 1 June — raised from $300 to $400 for tax year 2026 under House Bill 400 — and a foreign-owned single-member LLC files Form 5472 every year.
Delaware is chosen for its well-developed business courts and familiarity with investors, though for a simple service LLC with no fundraising plans, Wyoming is often cheaper. Delaware revised its formation and other filing fees from 1 August 2026, so we confirm the current fee before filing.
We form the LLC, provide the operating agreement, obtain the EIN, support the bank application, and set up the annual compliance — Delaware tax, Form 5472 and Indian FEMA reporting.
| Filing | Certificate of Formation via registered agent |
|---|---|
| Annual tax | $400 flat from tax year 2026 (due 1 June 2027); was $300 |
| Annual report | Not required for LLCs |
| Federal filing (foreign-owned SMLLC) | Form 5472 + pro forma 1120 |
| Indian side | Overseas investment reporting under FEMA |
