Note: Delaware LLCs file no annual report; they pay a flat $300 annual tax by 1 June, whatever the business earned. Missing it costs $200 plus 1.5% interest a month. Worth being blunt about the trade-off: Delaware is popular with businesses seeking outside investment, but a salon or clinic serving one local market gains little from it and takes on real cost — you would still have to register as a foreign entity in the state where you actually operate, pay that state's fees too, and keep a registered agent in both.
