Delaware Now Offers Name Reservations Online - With a Hitch.

The State of Delaware now offers online name reservations for corporations and alternate entities. This is part of the State's catch-up effort regarding web services.

The service works well, but we recommend our clients do not take advantage of the new capability. We do this for several reasons:

First, we can reserve the name for your corporation for free.
Second, We can file to create an LLC for about the same cost as the reservation fee.
Third, if you reserve your company name, we will see it as a taken name and use your second choice unless you tell us in advance.
Fourth, you MUST retain your confirmation number so we can file on the name you reserved. Loss of this number may complicate your filing and result in further charges.

In short, it is simpler to just give us a call. We can reserve your name or file your company in less time and for less money than if you reserve it on the State website.

Just another way we look out for our customers here at Delaware Intercorp, Inc.
