Voluntary liquidation of LLP: how to avoid mistakes in the process of closing a company in Kazakhstan

Liquidation of a company is a complex and responsible process that requires careful preparation and implementation of certain procedures. In this article, we will consider the main stages and recommendations for the effective liquidation of an LLP in Kazakhstan.

The process of terminating the activities of a legal entity includes several stages, compliance with the deadlines established for each of the stages, preparation of a large number of documents and requires compliance with all legal norms.

Main stages of liquidation of an LLP

Step 1 – Preparation and adoption of a decision on liquidation

Before starting the liquidation procedure of an LLP, it is necessary to make a decision on liquidation of the company at a general meeting. This decision is recorded in the minutes or a decision if the founders have one participant.

Step 2 – Appointment of a liquidation commission

The commission will monitor and coordinate the liquidation process, which consists of representatives of the LLP (director, accountant, other key employees). The powers and composition of the commission are approved at a general meeting of participants and are formalized in the relevant minutes or decision.

Step 3 – Notification of Liquidation of LLP

In addition to sending notices to interested parties, it is necessary to publish an announcement of liquidation in newspapers of national significance. This should contain information on the deadlines for accepting claims from creditors, at least 2 months from the date of publication.

Step 4 – Drawing up an interim liquidation balance sheet, preparing liquidation tax reporting, etc.

Two months from the date of publication of the announcement, it is necessary to draw up an interim liquidation balance sheet and prepare liquidation tax reporting.

Step 5 – Closing accounts and deregistering cash registers

It is necessary to close all LLP accounts in banks and provide certificates of account closure to the State Revenue Department of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan. If there is a cash register machine (KKM), it should also be deregistered.

Step 6 – Drawing up a certificate of destruction of the seal

Step 7 – Submitting documents to the registration authority
