💼 Why Form Your Company in Delaware: The Corporate Capital of America
Delaware is widely regarded as the most business-friendly state in the U.S., home to giants like Amazon, Google, Tesla, Walmart, American Express, and Disney. Over 63% of Fortune 500 companies are incorporated in Delaware—thanks to its flexible corporate laws, privacy advantages, and efficient legal system.
And the best part? You don’t need to live in or visit the U.S. to incorporate a Delaware company as a non-resident. Indians and other foreign nationals can easily set up and manage a U.S. company remotely.
