Assistance in JSC liquidation without negative consequences for its managers and owners.
Company’s termination is not an easy decision for its managers and owners. But if the decision is made it is necessary to accomplish the legal JSC liquidation as soon as possible.
Limited liability company is one of the commonest forms of business in Russia. Certainly no one wants to think about closing his own business while opening it, but if it happens you need to know how to carry out JSC liquidation procedure properly.
JSC liquidation (legal entity liquidation) is the cessation of the legal entity activities without the transfer of rights and obligations to others. Official closing procedure of JSC is a long and serious procedure. Company is considered to be liquidated and ceased to exist after recording in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE).
Voluntary JSC liquidation is carried out by a unanimous decision of its founders. Voluntary liquidation procedure is strictly regulated and even a minor violation of the order or timing of the procedure may lead to a denial of the company's liquidation. Therefore a support in elimination of the legal entity requires careful preparation of all required documents and compliance with all requirements under the law.
The benefits of voluntary liquidation:
- There is a complete termination of rights and obligations of a legal entity towards third parties and governmental authorities.
- Elimination of a possibility of tax audits in future.
- Lenders, investors, consumers and the competent authorities have no rights to make claims and demands to JSC after the liquidation if they did not have time to do it before or at the time of liquidation.
But a voluntary liquidation of the company is still long and laborious process that is always accompanied by tax audit.
Company’s liquidation can be not only voluntary but also forced. Forced liquidation occurs in the following cases:
- If the number of participants in JSC (CJSC) are more than fifty it will be reorganized into OJSC in a year. If reorganization does not happen and the number of participants has not decreased the company will be liquidated by court.
- The company is to be liquidated in case of non-payment of its share capital.
- If the company carries out illegal activities or any acts without special licenses a legal entity is liquidated by court.
- Legal entity liquidation in case of bankruptcy.

-
