A Delaware Certificate of Dissolution (Stock Corporation) is a legal document filed with the state of Delaware in order to dissolve a stock corporation. The Certificate of Dissolution must be signed by an authorized officer of the corporation and filed with the Delaware Secretary of State. Upon filing, the corporation’s existence ends and the corporation’s legal rights and obligations are extinguished. There are two types of Delaware Certificate of Dissolution (Stock Corporation): (1) Voluntary Dissolution, which is filed when the corporation’s board of directors voluntarily decides to dissolve the corporation; and (2) Involuntary Dissolution, which is filed when the corporation has failed to meet certain statutory requirements, such as failing to pay taxes or filing an annual report.
