Liquidation procedure of business in Ukraine
There are significant differences between procedure of liquidation of representative office of foreign company and limited liability company in Ukraine.When closing LLC our attorneys begin the process with submission of documents to local district administration. After this they initiate and supervise the process of audit conduction by the controlling authorities (tax bodies, pension fund, unemployment office and others) that are supposed to confirm absence of firm’s debts owed to the state.
Upon completion of the mentioned audits the law requires a number of primary documents of the firm that can confirm the fact to be provided for storage in archives.
Only after this the firm can be finally closed and deregistered from all the state registers.
This procedure takes about six months. There may be some delays at the stage of audit conduction by controlling authorities if they detect violations of Ukrainian legislation in force.
Liquidation of foreign company’s representative office in Ukraine occurs as follows.
First of all our attorneys request controlling authorities to provide confirmation on lawfulness of business conduction and absence of debts. After this it is necessary to get official confirmation from Ukrainian customs about lawfulness of conduction of foreign trade activities by the rep office.
All powers concerning termination of business in Ukraine are exercised by our attorneys based on power of attorney issued by parent company or the firm itself.
