How is company liquidation carried out?

Legal framework

The liquidation of legal entities is regulated by the Civil Code and Tax Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Law “On State Registration and State Register of Legal Entities”, and the relevant regulations of the State Tax Service.

Grounds for liquidation:

  • By decision of the founders or an authorized body;

  • If registration is declared invalid by a court;

  • In case of bankruptcy.

Documents required for the liquidation process:

  • Application for deregistration from state registration;

  • Decision on liquidation;

  • Declaration confirming solvency;

  • Document confirming notification of creditors;

  • Official seal of the legal entity.

For bankrupt legal entities, a court decision or a decision of the initial creditors’ meeting is required.

Liquidation process:

  • The registration authority reviews the documents and, within 5 days, adds the note “in liquidation” to the state register.

  • All official documents must include the company name together with the note “in liquidation”.

Issues reviewed during registration:

  • Registration of branches, representative offices, and other units;

  • Outstanding tax liabilities;

  • Active bank accounts;

  • Unsubmitted tax declarations.

For removal from the state register:

  • Liquidation balance sheet;

  • Report on distribution and use of remaining assets;

  • Registration certificate and charter;

  • Certificate on withdrawal of shares from circulation (for joint-stock companies);

  • Certificate confirming transfer of archival documents.

If all documents comply with legal requirements, the registration authority removes the legal entity from the register within 7 days.

NFS Audit carries out the liquidation of legal entities quickly, accurately, and reliably.
