Hello,
How do you legally dissolve an S corporation, which was only a small gift shop? No longer in business.
Thank you

No matter what kind of business you have, you should cancel any kind of permit or license you hold with the state or county -- you don't want anyone else to use your seller's permit or business name, for instance -- that could make you responsible for any taxes and penalties incurred after you no longer operate the business.

If you have a seller's permit or business license, contact the agency that issued the permit or license and cancel it. Likewise, if you've been using a fictitious or assumed business name, file an "abandonment" of the name and publish it in a local newspaper -- contact your county clerk's office for a form.
