Maine Articles of Merger is a legal document that is filed with the Maine Secretary of State in order to formally merge two or more businesses into a single entity. This document outlines the specifics of the merger, including the names of the merging businesses, the effective date of the merger, the name of the new merged entity, and the type of entity (corporation, limited liability company, etc.) that will become the new merged entity. There are two main types of Maine Articles of Merger: the Short Form and the Long Form. The Short Form is used for mergers between two LCS, while the Long Form is used when at least one of the merging businesses is not an LLC. Both forms require the filing of the Articles of Merger with the Maine Secretary of State, along with the payment of the appropriate filing fees.
