COMPANY LIQUIDATION IN AZERBAIJAN

Stopping business operations does not legally liquidate a company. The liquidation decision, liquidator, creditor notice, settlement of liabilities, liquidation balance, and deregistration must be handled in sequence.

What does the service cover?

• Drafting the voluntary-liquidation decision and liquidator documents
• Reviewing the filing for the “in liquidation” registry note
• Legal support for creditor notification
• Closure plan for contract, employment, tax, and asset matters
• Reviewing liquidation balance and deregistration documents

Information and documents for the initial review

• Charter, registry extract, and operating records
• Shareholder decision to liquidate
• List of assets, debts, creditors, employees, and contracts
• Tax and accounting status information

How the work is handled

1. Legal and liability inventory
2. Liquidation decision and initial registry stage
3. Creditor, employment, contract, and settlement work
4. Final balance and deregistration

Important consideration

The official procedure states that the creditor-claim period cannot be shorter than 60 days and the overall process should not exceed one year from the initial registry note. Tax, employment, asset, and debt issues require case-specific review.
