What’s more, as long as it doesn’t conduct any business, a Delaware company is not subject to income tax and also the State of Delaware will not impose sales taxes.
A Delaware company formation helps to protect assets and the Delaware LLC could enjoy a high level of privacy, the company officer’s private information will not be disclosed on the public record.
