Choosing a state

Which state should you form in?

For most operating businesses, the simplest answer is the state where you live and do business. Delaware, Wyoming, and Nevada have specific advantages for certain situations. Here is how operators commonly choose.

Form in your home state

Best for most small businesses. You avoid the cost of foreign qualification, dual annual reports, and a separate Registered Agent. If you operate in one state, form in one state.

Delaware

The standard choice for venture-backed startups and companies issuing equity. Predictable corporate law, the specialized Chancery Court, and decades of case law. Best matched to C-Corps raising outside capital.

Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico

Common choices for holding companies and asset protection. Privacy provisions, no state corporate income tax (Wyoming and Nevada), and lower ongoing costs. Best matched to single-member LLCs and family entities.
