The Best Way to dissolve a delaware c corp
Hey there! So you want to close down (dissolve) a Delaware C Corporation? Here's how to do it in simple steps:
- First, have a meeting with your shareholders and get them to vote yes on closing the company. You'll need most of them to agree.
- Pay off any taxes you owe to Delaware and the IRS. This is super important!
- File a 'Certificate of Dissolution' with Delaware. You can do this online at Delaware's Division of Corporations website.
- Tell everyone you owe money to (creditors) that you're closing down.
- File your final tax returns. Mark them as 'FINAL' so the IRS knows this is your last one.
- Close your business bank accounts and cancel any permits or licenses.
Important Note: It's always a good idea to talk to a lawyer or accountant before dissolving your company. They can make sure you don't miss anything important!
