The "Good Standing" Protocol.
Download the 2026 Delaware Franchise Tax Compliance Kit.
Save Thousands in Taxes. Avoid "Void" Status. Calculate "Assumed Par Value" Correctly.
The $75,000 Invoice That Scares Every Founder.
If you incorporated in Delaware, you will receive a scary letter in January.
It will say you owe $75,000 (or more) in Franchise Tax.
Do not panic. And do not pay it.
This is the default "Authorized Shares" calculation. Because startups authorize millions of shares for future investors, the default tax is astronomical.
You likely only owe $400.
But you only get the lower price if you know how to file using the "Assumed Par Value Method."
The Legal Attorney Delaware Franchise Tax Kit is your instruction manual. It walks you through the recalculation process, the filing deadlines, and the maintenance of your corporate charter.
What You Get Inside the Kit:
I. The Master Compliance Protocol (Word)
A comprehensive internal governance document that defines your deadlines. It separates the rules for C-Corps (March 1st) and LLCs (June 1st) so you never miss a date.
II. The "Assumed Par Value" Worksheet
The core of the kit. This section explains the exact formula Delaware uses to lower your tax bill. It details the two numbers you need from your Balance Sheet (Gross Assets) and Cap Table (Issued Shares) to unlock the $400 rate.
III. The Annual Report Checklist
For C-Corps, paying the tax isn't enough. You must file an Annual Report listing Directors and Officers. This guide ensures you list the correct people, matching your Bylaws, to avoid discrepancies during due diligence.
IV. The "Void" Recovery Plan
What happens if you miss the deadline? This document explains the penalties ($200 + interest) and the "Certificate of Revival" process required to bring a "Dead" company back to life.
V. The Registered Agent Monitor
You cannot have a Delaware company without a Delaware Agent. This protocol includes a yearly check to ensure your Agent hasn't resigned, which would instantly kill your corporate status.
Why Founders Need This Specific Template:
I. It Saves You Cash Immediately
Most founders panic and pay the full amount or hire a CPA to "fix" it for $500. This kit shows you how to fix it yourself in the Delaware portal in 5 minutes.
II. It Prevents Fundraising Blockers
Investors check your "Good Standing" before wiring money. If you missed a $300 LLC tax payment two years ago, your deal will stall. This calendar keeps you clean.
III. It Clarifies the "Tax Year" Confusion
Delaware taxes are paid in arrears (e.g., you pay 2025 taxes in 2026). This kit includes a 2026-2027 calendar so you know exactly which year you are paying for.

Frequently Asked Questions
I. Do I owe tax if I made $0 revenue?
Yes. Delaware Franchise Tax is a privilege tax, not an income tax. You owe it just for existing.
II. Does this cover my Federal/IRS taxes?
No. This is strictly for the State of Delaware corporate compliance. Federal Income Tax is a completely separate deadline (usually April 15th).
III. Can I use this for Wyoming or Nevada?
No. This kit is specifically engineered for Delaware, the jurisdiction of choice for 99% of venture-backed startups.
