I have used SFM for company set up and also for company dissolution. I have found them to be efficient and courteous. Sometimes responses involving the local registration authorities have taken some time, but I surmise that this is attributable to the third party involved. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Delaware is a state with a tax friendly business climate, making it a popular choice for incorporation. Companies incorporated in Delaware are allowed to trade inside and outside of the United States, with over 60% of the New York Stock Exchange’s companies being registered in the state. SFM provide international company formation and can help you register a company online in Delaware, in as little as 2 working days.
Delaware offers unique tax incentives compared to other states in the USA, earning it its reputation as a leading company formation jurisdiction. Residency is not required when registering a company in the state and non-residential shareholders do not pay tax on their shares in the state, provided that there are no transactions in the United States and that its owners are not US Persons. Additionally, the state's strong privacy laws add an extra layer of protection for companies and their shareholders.
Delaware requires a local agent (which SFM can provide) to conduct all filings and handle most documentation.
