How to close a company in another country

A company formed outside the United States closes under that country's registry and statutes. Each country below has had its closing routes, registry, employee-notice rule, and data-protection authority read on official pages and by a lawyer. You can still ask whether a company qualifies when its country is absent from the list. Staff at peak and years of records decide that. US dissolution forms are a separate filing.

What these pages cover

Each country names the ways a company can stop existing. One route is often a strike-off, where the registry removes a company that has stopped trading and has nothing left to distribute. Another is liquidation, where a liquidator settles what the company owes before anything is returned. The route is named in the words the registry uses, and the condition is the one the statute attaches. Debts, assets, and the people who still have a claim decide which route fits. The registry is the office that records the filing. You will see that office, and you will see what it will not do, such as paying staff or deciding a dispute. Employee rules sit beside the filing. A company with staff may have to consult or give notice before the last day of work. Those rules come from the labor authority or the statute the registry cites. They are not a US notice calculation. Data protection is separate. You will see the statute and the authority that enforces it, and the words that authority uses for de-identified data. Those words are the authority's. Records you have to keep after the filing, and for how long, are their own block. A fee that belongs to one country stays with that country.

What these pages do not copy from the US

US final-pay deadlines are set by the state where the employee works. A state notice statute, where one exists, is a state rule. Neither rule is copied onto a country. A US certificate of dissolution, a US franchise-tax form, and a US clearance letter are not reused. The filing name, the fee, and the office are the ones in that country's statute. The US payout figure is not printed for a company formed abroad. That company is not paid on the US staff bands. Eligibility is still the staff count and the years of records. If you formed the company in a US state, read final paycheck and WARN rules by state. If you formed it abroad, use the registry and the employee rule for that country. Keep the state rules for any staff who worked in a US state. A federal filing is not a US corporation with the country name swapped in. Where a country has provinces or states, those companies follow their own statutes. The register those companies use is named with the country.

Questions about closing a company in another country

Which countries have a closing procedure on this site?

A country is listed only after its registry, its closing routes, its employee-notice rule, and its data-protection authority have been read on the official pages and by a lawyer. If your country is not in the list, you can still ask whether the company qualifies. Staff at peak and years of records decide that question. The list adds a country when that reading is finished for its registry and its statutes.

Does closing a company outside the US use the same forms as a US state?

No. You file with that country's registry under that country's statute. A US certificate of dissolution, a US franchise-tax form, and a US final-pay deadline belong to the state of formation. They are not the forms you send to a registrar abroad. Employee notice, where the country requires it, comes from that country's labor statute rather than from a US notice calculation.

Will a country page tell me the payout for a non-US company?

No. A company outside the United States does not get a dollar table, and the US staff bands are not used in its place. You will see the registry, the closing routes, and the data-protection authority. Whether you can apply depends on 30 staff at peak, or 25 if most staff are in the US, and 2 years of records. Your cost is $0. A yes or no comes within 3 days.

Do I need a lawyer to use these country pages?

No. What you are reading is general information, not a filing plan for your company. A lawyer read the registry rule, the employee-notice rule, and the data-protection rule before a country was listed. That does not replace your own lawyer. Ask your lawyer before you file, before you consult staff, and before you sign a license.
