What is Washington LLC Dissolution?

A Washington LLC is created when the WA Secretary of State approves the Articles of Organization. A record of the Washington LLC is added to the list of LLCs which have officially registered with the Washington Secretary of State.  Once a LLC is registered with the Washington Secretary of State, that LLC immediately has both reporting and tax obligations which incur penalties if the obligations are not met by the required deadlines.   more...

Why do I need to Dissolve a Washington LLC?

As soon as a Washington LLC is registered with the WA Secretary of State, that LLC is responsible for recurring obligations of the Washington Secretary of State and the Washington Department of Revenue.  If the Washington LLC does not file reports or pay taxes then that WA Limited Liability Company could be responsible for penalties which go up as time goes by.

Unless you Dissolve your Washington LLC with the Washington Secretary of State that WA Limited Liability Company will be responsible for all recurring fees and penalties.

How long before someone can use my LLC name in Washington after I Dissolve?

A Washington LLC company name becomes available for anyone to use when the Washington Limited Liability Company is Dissolved by the Washington Secretary of State. There are no LLC company name protections in Washington once a Washington LLC has been Dissolved by the Washington Secretary of State.

Do I have to publish a Notice of Dissolution of the Washington LLC?

There are no state of Washington requirements for the publication of a Notice of Dissolution of a Washington LLC.

While the Washington Secretary of State does not legally require the publication of a Notice of Dissolution of a Washington LLC, publication is a good way to notify anyone who might have a claim against the Washington LLC.  Evidence of publication might prove useful down the line if someone makes a claim against the WA Limited Liability Company after the Washington LLC has been dissolved.
