Where Should I Form my LLC?

Most business owners have heard that Delaware or Nevada present a distinct advantage over other states when it comes to forming an LLC. It's true that there are advantages to forming an LLC in either state. However, most of our customers choose to form their LLCs in the state in which they conduct the majority of their business.

Advantages of forming an LLC in your home state:

• Forego the expense of additional registrations, known as "foreign qualifications", imposed when you register to transact business in additional states.
• Avoid paying franchise taxes and other government fees in more than one state.
• Small business owners typically choose the least complicated option when they only operate in one state.
