How to Remove Yourself from an LLC Determine if the Articles of Organization specify a process that must be followed to remove yourself as a member. Complete the steps listed in the Articles of Organization. Provide written notification to the LLC of your intent to remove yourself.
After you form a Georgia LLC, you may need to obtain a business license or permit. Your requirements are determined by the industry you are in and where your Georgia Limited Liability Company is located.
A corporation that has issued shares and commenced business may dissolve by filing a Notice of Intent to Dissolve pursuant to O.C.G.A. 14-2-1403 and Articles of Dissolution pursuant to O.C.G.A. 14-2-1408. Form CD 410 and CD 412 may be used for this purpose.
To dissolve a Georgia LLC, file a Certificate of Termination (Form CD-415) with the Georgia Secretary of State, Corporations Division (SOS). The certificate of termination costs $5 to file online, $10 by mail, and is available on the Georgia SOS website or in your Northwest Registered Agent online account.
To cancel or withdraw an entity's registration in Georgia, file an Application for Withdrawal of Certificate of Authority with the Georgia Secretary of State, Corporations Division (SOS). There is one form for all entities, so indicate which type of entity the application is for.
Businesses that are incorporated in another state will typically apply for a Georgia certificate of authority. Doing so registers the business as a foreign entity and eliminates the need to incorporate a new entity. Operating without a certificate of authority may result in penalties or fines.
