Decided to stop your business or no longer need your U.S. company?
You can’t just leave it — you must officially dissolve your LLC or Corporation with both the state and the IRS.
If you don’t take legal steps to close the company properly, you may still be liable for annual taxes, compliance reports, registered agent fees, penalties, and even legal action — even if you never made a dollar.
INCHUB LLC handles the full dissolution process for non-U.S. residents: fast, compliant, and stress-free.
“Not using your company” is not the same as closing it. Legally, it still exists — and you’re responsible for it.
Here’s what can happen if you don’t dissolve your company:
Late or missed tax filings (Forms 1120, 5472, 1040-NR) = $25,000+ in penalties per year.
Failure to file annual reports or pay franchise taxes = $300–$800/year in many states (like Delaware, California).
States may forcibly shut down your company and label it “Non-Compliant” or “Revoked”, affecting your record.
Your EIN remains attached to an “active” company — you may be denied new EINs in the future if it’s not cleared.
If mail is returned or ignored, lawsuits may proceed without your knowledge —putting your name and passport at risk.
A non-compliant company may trigger account freezes, payout holds, or full shutdown by financial platforms.
