END-OF-YEAR COMPLIANCE CHECKLIST FOR CORPORATIONS

By: CT Corporation Staff

Year-end for 2022 is fast approaching. This means carrying out certain
compliance tasks for all entities.

Many things can trigger year-end compliance actions. Perhaps you expanded your
business, exited a region, modified your business, were involved in a merger or
acquisition, refinanced, or grew your business globally.

Ensure that you’ve covered any outstanding corporate compliance issues by
reviewing these key areas below and by downloading our handy checklist. 

2022 Year End Checklist for Corporations
If changes have been made this past year to the information set forth in your
Articles of Incorporation, you're required to file an amendment with the state
of formation.
Download the checklist


BUSINESS LICENSES

Many licenses must be renewed annually. Plus, certain business activities may
have triggered licensing changes. During the year, did you add or close a
location, participate in a merger or acquisition, or add a new product or
service? If so, you may have to obtain additional licenses or cancel them. Now
is the time to verify that you meet all licensing requirements.


FOREIGN QUALIFICATION

If you’ve conducted activities outside your formation state that constitute
“doing business” in those states, you may be subject to a number of foreign
qualification requirements. These include registering to do business with the
state's corporation filing office, appointing a Registered Agent, and
maintaining a registered office in that state. Failure to foreign qualify can
lead to fines, loss of access to state courts, and other penalties.


DISSOLUTIONS AND WITHDRAWALS

Steps must be taken to properly dissolve a business in the state of formation
and withdraw from all states where it has registered. Doing so before year-end
will eliminate the need to file a partial-year tax return for next year and may
reduce other tax liabilities as well.


ANNUAL REPORTS

To remain in good standing, it's important to fulfill all annual
report requirements. This includes filing delinquent reports for businesses that
were dissolved during the year.

Compliance considerations
Business expansion, business modification, merger or acquisition, refinance, or
business growth may be reasons for additional compliance actions.



AMENDMENTS

Don’t forget that some changes to a corporation or LLC require the formation
document (Articles of Incorporation for a corporation or Articles of
Organization for an LLC) to be amended. For example, if a corporation or
LLC underwent a name change, you will have to file articles of amendment for the
change to be legally effective. Or if your Articles of Organization say that the
LLC is to be member-managed and you want to switch to manager-management you
have to file an amendment. And if the corporation or LLC is qualified in foreign
states, an amendment to the certificate of authority might be required as well.
Make sure all required amendments were filed and that the state’s records on
your company are up to date. And if not, be sure to get those amendments filed.


GLOBAL ACTIVITY

Your compliance responsibilities extend to business activities around the world.
Make sure to perform a health check of your global entities. Keep in mind that
compliance requirements vary between countries, even down to the local level.

Download our end-of-year compliance checklist to easily see what’s needed and
ensure you’ve addressed all U.S. and global compliance issues. You’ll close the
year on the right foot and kick off the New Year with compliance confidence.
