Selling LLC is the easiest liquidation option. To do this, you will need to conclude a sales contract, issue a reappointment of a new director or head of the board of directors and chief accountant. In the event that, in connection with the change of director, some of the founders withdrew from the company, it is necessary to notify all other shareholders and heads of extra-budgetary funds, if any. The founders who have left the LLC do not have any rights and obligations associated with it and are not liable for entrepreneurial risks.

However, the Civil Code of Russia provides for another procedure for the liquidation of LLCs. It includes several stages. The first is the holding of a special liquidation commission. The liquidation commission is a meeting of shareholders at which a decision is taken directly on the termination of the organization. The decision is recorded and the document drawn up, together with a written application, is submitted to the registration authority of St. Petersburg. Such is the MIFNS 15 - Interdistrict Inspectorate of the Federal Tax Service, which is located at ul. Red textile workers, 10.

The Civil Code of the Russian Federation as a next step provides a statement through the media about the liquidation of LLC. Typically, newspapers or magazines are used for this. The announcement must indicate: the exact name of the company, its legal address and the exact time limits established by law for filing possible claims against the governing body of the LLC. The minimum possible period is 2 months from the official date of the liquidation application.

The Commission, with the help of the registration authority and the Tax Inspectorate, ascertains the availability of outstanding loans from the liquidated organization or any other debts. An LLC cannot be liquidated by law until all debts are repaid. If the company simply does not have financial capabilities for this, the property of the LLC is sold or the bankruptcy procedure begins. If the company’s actions caused major moral or material damage to someone, their losses are compensated in the first place.
