Yes, if you set up an LLC in Delaware and primarily conduct business in California, you may need to register as a "foreign LLC" in California. This involves additional fees and compliance requirements such as:
- Filing a Statement of Information
- Paying California's annual franchise tax
- Possible additional state-specific regulations
