Delaware Anonymous LLC: Privacy Overview
Delaware allows privacy in public filings compared to many states, though complete anonymity depends on how you structure management, registered agent, and banking documents, and on evolving federal ownership reporting rules.
Public Filings
Delaware’s Certificate of Formation can omit member names. A Delaware registered agent is listed for service. Operating Agreements are private contracts and are not filed.
BOI Reporting (FinCEN)
The federal Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) rules generally require reporting beneficial owners to FinCEN. These reports are not public but must be accurate and kept current.
Practical Privacy
- Use a trusted Delaware registered agent and business address for mail.
- Keep personal and business finances separate.
- Understand disclosure obligations with banks and counterparties.
