How to Dissolve an LLC

If you have a limited liability company (LLC), there may come a time when you need to dissolve it. Whether you're relocating to another state, restructuring your business as a corporation, or ceasing operations entirely, it's crucial to follow proper dissolution procedures with your state.

Failing to properly dissolve your LLC can result in continued obligations to file annual reports and pay associated fees, even after your business has stopped operating. Additionally, you may remain personally liable for business debts and obligations if the dissolution process isn't completed correctly.

Why Proper Dissolution Matters

Dissolving an LLC isn't as simple as just closing your doors and walking away. Without formally dissolving your company with the state, you could face serious consequences including ongoing tax obligations, annual report fees, and potential personal liability for business debts.

When you registered your LLC, you entered into a formal relationship with your state government. That relationship doesn't end until you officially file dissolution paperwork and complete all necessary steps. Many business owners have discovered—often years later—that they owe thousands of dollars in back fees and penalties because they never properly dissolved their LLC.

7 Essential Steps to Dissolve Your LLC

1. Vote for Dissolution

• Review Your Operating Agreement: Your LLC's operating agreement should outline the specific voting requirements for dissolution. Most require a majority or unanimous vote from all members.
• Hold a Formal Meeting: Conduct an official meeting where members vote on the dissolution. Document the meeting with detailed minutes.
• Draft a Written Resolution: Create a formal resolution to dissolve the LLC that includes the date of dissolution, the vote count, and signatures from all voting members.
• Maintain Records: Keep the dissolution resolution and meeting minutes in your company records for future reference and potential audits.

2. Cancel Business Licenses and Permits

• Inventory All Licenses: Create a comprehensive list of all business licenses, permits, and registrations your LLC holds at federal, state, and local levels.
• Contact Issuing Agencies: Reach out to each agency that issued licenses or permits to initiate cancellation procedures.
• Settle Outstanding Fees: Pay any outstanding renewal fees, penalties, or other charges before cancellation to avoid future collection actions.
• Request Written Confirmation: Obtain written confirmation of cancellation from each agency for your records.

3. Notify Creditors and Settle Debts

• Identify All Creditors: Make a complete list of everyone your LLC owes money to, including vendors, suppliers, lenders, and service providers.
• Send Written Notices: Provide formal written notification to all creditors informing them of your LLC's dissolution and providing a deadline for filing claims.
• Negotiate Settlements: Work with creditors to settle outstanding debts. You may be able to negotiate reduced settlement amounts.
• Pay All Debts: Settle all outstanding obligations before distributing any assets to members to protect against future liability.

4. File Final Tax Returns

• Federal Tax Returns: File final federal tax returns with the IRS and check the "final return" box on the form. Include all income and expenses through the dissolution date.
• State Tax Returns: File final state income tax returns and obtain tax clearance certificates if required by your state.
• Employment Taxes: If you had employees, file final employment tax returns and provide W-2 forms to all employees for the final year.
• Sales Tax: File final sales tax returns with state and local authorities and surrender your sales tax permit.

5. Cancel Business Contracts

• Review All Contracts: Examine every contract your LLC has entered into, including leases, vendor agreements, service contracts, and customer agreements.
• Provide Proper Notice: Follow the termination procedures outlined in each contract, providing the required notice period.
• Negotiate Early Termination: For long-term contracts, negotiate early termination agreements with other parties.
• Fulfill Final Obligations: Complete all remaining contractual obligations or make arrangements to transfer them to another party.

6. Distribute Remaining Assets

• Calculate Final Assets: After paying all debts and obligations, determine what assets remain for distribution to members.
• Follow Operating Agreement: Distribute assets according to each member's ownership percentage as specified in your operating agreement.
• Convert to Cash: Unless your operating agreement states otherwise, most assets should be converted to cash before distribution.
• Document Distributions: Maintain detailed records of all asset distributions to members, including dates, amounts, and acknowledgments.

7. File Articles of Dissolution

• Download the Correct Form: Visit your Secretary of State's website to download the official Articles of Dissolution form for your state.
• Complete All Information: Fill out the form completely with your LLC's name, formation date, dissolution date, and confirmation that all obligations have been satisfied.
• Pay Filing Fees: Include the required filing fee with your submission. Fees vary by state, typically ranging from $0 to $150.
• Submit to State: File the completed form with your Secretary of State's office by mail, in person, or online depending on your state's options.
