Taxes – overview
Every year a U.S. company is in existence, it will owe taxes in the U.S.
Every year, Stripe Atlas sends email reminders about tax due dates and
shares opportunities to engage with tax firms that specialize in startups.

● Your company owes taxes for any year in which it exists, even if the
company did not earn revenue.
● When you file Delaware Franchise Tax on the state’s online tax tool,
the default settings will initially display a much higher estimate for
taxes owed than is actually owed. This estimate will update after
entering your company’s details in the state’s online tool.
Banking – overview
After the IRS creates a tax ID for the company, founders can open a
