How to Dissolve an LLC in North Carolina

What you need to know about North Carolina LLC dissolution

North Carolina charges no fee for LLC dissolution.

North Carolina LLC dissolution is handled by the North Carolina Secretary of State. The official form is called the Articles of Dissolution, and it must be signed by an authorized member, manager, or officer of the LLC.

North Carolina dissolution process

1. Member or manager approval — per your operating agreement, get the required approval to dissolve.
2. Wind up affairs — collect receivables, pay outstanding debts, distribute remaining assets to members.
3. File the Articles of Dissolution — submit to the North Carolina Secretary of State along with the applicable filing fee.
4. File final federal and state tax returns — marked as "final return."
5. Cancel licenses, permits, and registrations — local, state, and any other jurisdictions.
