How do you Dissolve a Louisiana Corporation?

Answer:
To dissolve a Louisiana Corporation, an Affidavit to Dissolve Corporation form

must be filed with the Commercial Division of the Secretary of State’s office, located in Baton Rouge.

The official form may be found at http://www.sos.louisiana.gov/Portals/0/commercial/forms/339AffidavittoDissolveLouisianaCorporation.pdf . It must be signed by the shareholders of the corporation, or the shareholders in the event that no shares have been issued. The form must also be notarized. By signing the form, the officers attest that the corporation does not owe debts or own immovable property.

Once the Affidavit to Dissolve Corporation has been processed, the appropriate corporate official will receive Certificates of Dissolution, one of which must be filed with the Clerk of the Court in the Parish where the corporation’s registered office is located. For corporations with registered offices located in Orleans Parish, it is necessary to file a Certificate of Dissolution with the Recorder of Mortgages in addition to the Clerk of the Court.
