How to withdraw a foreign LLC from Minnesota

An LLC formed elsewhere that stops doing business in Minnesota files a withdrawal with the state (Minnesota's fee is $55). That ends its Minnesota registration, yearly reports and fees; the LLC itself keeps existing at home. As of October 2026.

The 5 steps to withdraw from Minnesota

Step 3 is the state filing; the rest stops the bills that keep coming after you leave.

  1. 1

    Withdraw, or dissolve?

    Where people get stuck

    Withdraw when the LLC was formed in another state and only stops operating in Minnesota. If Minnesota is the LLC's home state, dissolve it in Minnesota instead.

  2. 2

    Bring Minnesota filings and taxes current

    Before you file

    Many states will not accept a withdrawal while reports or state taxes are overdue, and some ask for a tax clearance. The Minnesota annual renewal is due December 31 every year, with a state fee of $0. Check the Minnesota deadline.

  3. 3

    File the withdrawal with the state

    We file this one

    You file it with Minnesota's business filing office; Minnesota's fee is $55 (Minnesota fee schedule). The current form is on Minnesota's official site. We file it for $120 plus the state fee.

  4. 4

    Close Minnesota tax accounts and licenses

    Easy to forget

    Cancel the Minnesota sales tax permit, payroll accounts and local licenses so returns stop coming due. Minnesota sales tax permit.

  5. 5

    End the Minnesota registered agent after the state confirms

    Last step

    Keep the agent until the withdrawal is filed, so legal papers served in the meantime still reach you.
