Annual Incorporation Fee

[RamanSidhu]

I got a quick question annual incorporation fee. I'm not sure if this is also called the Incorporation Tax. I am doing a e-commerce and incorporation in Delaware. I want to incorporate in these coming weeks and I was wondering if I was to incorporate would i pay my yearly fee in January, because of the start of a new year or on my anniversary date which would be December of next year if I incorporated this month?

Your annual incorporation fee is totally separate from taxes.
From what I recall the fee is paid on the anniversary (somebody correct me if I'm wrong).

I would ask why you are incorporating? What type of business do you have? So many people unnecessarily incorporate for all the wrong reasons. Usually they do it to protect their assets. However, incorporating does not place a magin cloak around your assets.
