The most flexible business laws
No corporate income tax
With minimal start-up requirements, simple maintenance and the ability for members to establish their own company structures and rules, the Delaware LLC is the most flexible type of business entity offered by any state or country in the world
Below are seven of the significant benefits of a standard Delaware LLC:
This means the terms and rules of each LLC can be tailored to accommodate the specific needs and preferences of an LLC. This is the biggest benefit of an LLC over any other form of business entity. This power is called freedom of contract.
Delaware LLCs possess increased asset protection against creditors. This means that if a member of an LLC has a judgment filed against him/her, a creditor cannot attack the LLC nor acquire any portion of the LLC's assets. This benefit protects everyone in the company
A statutory limitation on the personal liability of the members of an LLC means that members are not held liable for repayment if an LLC fails and leaves behind debt. They just lose the amount of dollar they invested in the LLC.
When an LLC is formed, the owners can choose whether they want the LLC to be taxed as a partnership, an S corporation, a C corporation or a sole proprietorship. Single-member LLCs are not recognized by the IRS and therefore pay no taxes at all.
Very little information is required to form an LLC in Delaware, and start-up involves only a small filing fee. Additionally, there are no meetings or voting requirements.
The cost to maintain a Delaware LLC is simple and inexpensive. Once a year, a simple form and an annual Franchise Tax Fee of $300 must be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, and a Registered Agent Fee must be paid annually, as all Delaware LLCs are required by law to have a Registered Agent to accept service of process.
You are not required to disclose any information about the owner of an LLC to the state of Delaware in order to form or maintain an LLC. In Delaware, you are required only to have a designated contact person and a Delaware Registered Agent.
For better recognition on L.L.C and Corporation, let's take Google and YouTube for example
Google is a Corporation and YouTube is an L.L.C. Why did they choose different entity types?
The L.L.C vs Corporation distinction is clearly defined by this one example that the new generation of entrepreneurs should take full take advantage of.
YouTube actually started as a corporation, filing its Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Division of Corporations on October 3, 2005. On November 8, 2006, just 13 months and five days later, it merged its Corporation into an L.L.C, which is one of the key advantages of Delaware companies: they can change from one form of entity to another, whenever they want.

YouTube L.L.C, on the other hand, is owned by a few members. Nobody but the insiders know how few, and nobody but the insiders know who the owners are. In addition, nobody but the owners know what the company finances are, because no public disclosure is required. That’s the benefit of a Delaware L.L.C—your members, their ownership percentages and your financial valuation are private matters, of which only the company insiders are aware. There is no public registration, no public disclosure and no federal requirement of any type that necessitates the owners of a Delaware L.L.C to reveal who they are on the public record.
Google chose to be a Delaware Corporation so it could go public and raise money, which they did on August 16, 2004. Once it did so, it quickly became one of the richest companies in history. Google's rise to power created tens of thousands of millionaires and a lot of billionaires. Even though 60% of Google is owned by institutions, there are millions of individual shareholders in the company. The company has current cash reserves of $50 billion.

An LLC is a relatively new type of entity in the United States. If properly structured, it combines the limited liability of a corporation with the pass-through taxation of a partnership. However, it is important to clarify that while LLCs can be treated as partnerships, they are not corporations.
An LLC is a business vehicle with a legal existence separate and distinct from its owners. Owners and managers are not personally liable for the company's debts and obligations. These features, when combined with non-U.S. source income, mean non-resident aliens of the United States can avoid U.S. taxation when using an LLC.

The operations and management of an LLC are governed by a written agreement, composed by its owners, called an LLC Operating Agreement. The Delaware Limited Liability Company Act allows the parties to define their operations, management and business relationship in the LLC Operating Agreement. This is known as freedom of contract.
An LLC guarantees secure confidentiality as well as the ability to create a customized management structure that establishes the economic relationship among owners. The LLC Operating Agreement can be written in any language and is typically not required to be translated into English.
While the Delaware LLC law permits a Delaware LLC to be managed by its members, it does not require members to be managers. More importantly, the law also states that no member or manager is personally responsible for any debts, obligations or liabilities of the Delaware LLC solely by being a member or acting as a manager.

A general corporation – often referred to as a stock corporation, open corporation or C corporation – is highly recommended when a company goes public or plans a private offering of stock. General corporations are also typically used when a company wants to attract venture-capital funding.
A general corporation has three tiers of power – shareholders, directors and officers. Each has different rights and responsibilities within the corporation.
Shareholdersprovide the financial resources in the company. They own the company but do not manage its routine. Holders of common stock receive one vote for each share they own, and they have the right to help elect the members of the board of directors, as well as to vote on certain other matters of major significance to the company.
The shareholder who holds a majority of the shares of issued stock also holds the right to control the company. They are sometimes referred to as majority shareholders. They possess a larger amount of responsibility than minority shareholders.
Other shareholders who hold no controlling role are referred to as minor shareholders. Generally, they bear no responsibility to the company. They are able to assign or grant their votes to anyone they choose, and sell their stocks at will.
Shareholders are rewarded in two ways – by dividends paid on their stocks and by the increased value of their stocks as the company grows.
Directors take responsibility for the company’s overall management. They manage all the major Delaware business actions, such as the issuance of stock, the election of officers, the hiring of key management, the establishment of corporate policies and the setting of their own and key officers' salaries and compensation packages.
Directors may make decisions and take action in pre-announced meetings with a quorum present, or without a meeting by unanimous written consent of all directors. Directors cannot give or sell their votes to other directors, nor can they vote by proxy.
Ordinarily, directors may be removed and replaced – with or without cause – by the majority vote of the shareholders. This is the controlling role of majority shareholders.
The officers work for the board of directors and handle the day-to-day business activity. Officers carry out the board's decisions and implement the board's policy. Officers are usually the President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer. The board of directors will appoint other officers such as CEO, Sale Manager, Operation Manager etc, to fit the company provision.
Officers do have the right to purchase company-issued stocks at the discretion of the board of directors.
