Franchise Tax 2022

Many of you have received a letter from Delaware Division of Corporations regarding filing and paying your annual franchise taxes and filing your annual report. The Division of Corporations is now requiring all businesses to file electronically. The deadline for Corporations and Non-Profits to file the annual report and pay the annual fee is March 1, 2023.  The annual fee is now $225.00 per Corporation or Non-Profit.

To file electronically, you must go online to corp.delaware.gov/paytaxes/ and click on “File Annual Report.”  Here, you will enter your file number. Next, you will be directed to input company information. Once you enter the company information, select “Continue Filing” and the next screen will ask you to choose the type of payment you will be submitting. Online payment options are by Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or Electronic-check. 

We would be happy to assist you with your annual filing requirement.  If you would like for us to file electronically on your behalf, please call our office with your payment option and payment information. If payment will be made by credit card, this would include your account type, account number, and expiration date.  If payment will be made by electronic-check, we will need the bank name, account number, routing number, and the type of account.  You can also fill out the enclosed payment option form and mail or fax to us.  Please let us know if you would like for us to provide this service for you.

If you have any further questions regarding your annual franchise report and payment of tax, please contact our office at 302-422-0108.

Sincerely, 

Starkey & Company
