Delaware bars registered agents for partnerships from working only remotely

Registered agents may not do their work solely through remote contact, mail forwarding, or both. This covers registered agents for partnerships under Delaware's partnership law. Remote contact means working only through the internet or other ways of communicating from a distance. This rule took effect on August 1, 2025.

A correction filing may cancel an inaccurate or improperly completed partnership document. The document must be a statement or certificate filed under Delaware's partnership law. The correction must describe the problem, say the earlier document is canceled, and meet the signing and filing rules. For people substantially harmed by the cancellation, it takes effect when the correction is filed. This rule took effect on August 1, 2025.

People whose approval is required may validate an act involving a partnership that was invalid or could be undone. The partnership, a partner, or another person may have taken the act. A person may have acted for themselves or the partnership. The partnership agreement determines whose approval is needed. Words, actions, silence, or acceptance may show approval. If a change to the agreement allowing the act would require notice, and the approvers could also approve that change, people owed notice must be told afterward unless already told or involved. Approval can take effect before notice. The act is treated as valid from when it was taken. These rules took effect on August 1, 2025.

An out-of-state limited liability partnership must give formation details and a partner's statement when registering in Delaware.

A partnership must pay its full annual tax before filing a document that will cancel its state record of existence.
