Ask YC: How to form a Delaware C-Corp?
I've been Googling for the past couple of days and am having a tough time pinning down the steps I should follow in forming a Delaware C-corp.
Like many of you, we'll be based out of the Bay Area.
-> Who do I deal with?
-> What documents should one file and when?
-> What should one talk to a lawyer about and when?
-> What happens at what stage?
Would be good to construct some sort of a step-by-step plan for anyone.. atleast with the basic information in it.
- monological 18y agoDepends. If you have money, check out bizfilings.com. You can setup a C-corp for around $184.00, it's pretty quick and they do everything for you. They file all the appropriate forms, they have a registered agent in the state for you (which is required), they remind you to pay your yearly Delaware taxes when they're due, to just name a few things.
- vishaldpatel 18y agoI was also curious what sort of business licenses the State of Delaware would impose upon a start up software company. Thoughts?
