Consulting Service for Dissolving Company/Business in Vietnam
Dissolving a company is a legal procedure to end the existence of a business as well as terminate the legal status of the business. The dissolution procedure is not too complicated, but many subjects do not fully understand the provisions of the law, so the implementation is difficult. Therefore, Viet An Law provides consulting service for dissolving company/business in Vietnam to support businesses in winding up their businesses.
Pursuant to the provisions of Enterprise Law 2020, a business is dissolved in the following cases:
Voluntary dissolution
The term of operation stated in the company charter ends without a decision to extend;
Pursuant to the resolution or decision of the business owner for private enterprises, of the Board of Members for partnerships, of the Board of Members or company owners for limited liability companies, of the General Meeting of Shareholders for joint stock companies;
Compulsory dissolution
The company no longer has the minimum number of members for 06 consecutive months without completing procedures to convert the type of enterprise;
The Enterprise Registration Certificate is revoked, except in cases where the Law on Tax Administration provides otherwise.
Conditions for dissolving / liquidating company
The business can only be struck when it ensures payment of all debts and other financial obligations.
The business is not in the process of resolving disputes in Court or Arbitration.
Domestic business dissolution dossiers
Pursuant to Clause 1, Article 210 of Enterprise Law 2020, the enterprise dissolution dossier includes the following documents:
Notice of business dissolution;
Report on liquidation of business assets;
List of creditors and paid debts, including payment of all tax debts and debts for social insurance, health insurance, and unemployment insurance for employees after the decision to wind up of company, if any.
Procedures for dissolving domestic businesses
In case of voluntary dissolution and dissolution when the business no longer has the minimum number of members
In case the enterprise has its Enterprise Registration Certificate revoked
Step 1: The business registration authority notifies the business that it is in the process of dissolving.
The business registration authority must notify the status of the business undergoing dissolution procedures on the National Business Registration Information Portal, and at the same time, issue a decision to revoke the Enterprise Registration Certificate or the Court’s dissolution decision that has come into effect.
Step 2: The business convenes a meeting to decide on liquidation.
Within 10 days from the date of receipt of the decision to revoke the Enterprise Registration Certificate or the Court’s decision taking legal effect, the business must convene a meeting to decide on liquidation.
Send the dissolution decision and a copy of the decision to revoke the Enterprise Registration Certificate or the legally effective Court decision to the Business Registration Authority, tax authority, and employees of the enterprise.
If the business still has unfulfilled financial obligations, it must send the dissolution decision along with a debt settlement plan to creditors and persons with related rights and obligations.
Step 3: Liquidate assets and pay debts
Similar to voluntary dissolution mentioned above.
Step 4: Submit dissolution dossier
The business performs the following tasks:
Confirm customs obligations
Close tax code
Submit company dissolution dossier to the Business Registration Office
Step 5: Update the legal status of the business on the National Database of Business Registration
