General Introduction Full-service company dissolution services in Ninh Binh Province

The reality is that while company formation is relatively convenient these days, when a business wants to cease operations, dissolution procedures are often complex, time-consuming, and require expertise in law, accounting, and taxation—qualities that many internal units struggle to handle thoroughly on their own.
Common problems include: prolonged tax settlements, outstanding tax debts, failure to cancel electronic invoices, or accounting errors leading to requests for additional information from the tax authorities; as a result, dissolution applications are stalled, incurring costs and wasting time for businesses.
PMH’s solution: providing a comprehensive company dissolution service , including document review, handling tax arrears, drafting decisions and minutes, representing clients in submitting documents to the Department of Planning and Investment or online when possible, and monitoring until confirmation is received, to help businesses complete the procedure quickly and safely.

Unsure if your business should be dissolved? Here are a few signs to help you quickly check before making a decision — if you see 2 or more signs, you may consider dissolution or seeking professional advice:

The business has been operating inefficiently for several consecutive periods (e.g., incurring losses for 2–3 years).
The owner/shareholder no longer has a goal to continue or does not wish to renew the license/registration.
Businesses risk having their registration certificate revoked due to serious violations or failure to meet operating conditions.
Tax debts, insurance debts, or creditor disputes that are difficult to resolve are affecting regular operations.

If you find yourself in one of the above situations or are still unsure, send your documents or information to PMH via form/email/hotline for a free review and advice on the appropriate course of action — including specific procedural guidance or recommendations for business dissolution if necessary.

When does a business need to dissolve its company?

The business no longer has a need for operation: the owner wants to withdraw or the market has changed, making the operation no longer viable.
Prolonged, irrecoverable losses: for example, a company that has been losing money for many consecutive years and recovery is not feasible — dissolution may be a reasonable option.
Upon expiration of the operating period, the shareholder/member does not wish to renew the license or no longer has a goal to continue investing.
Decision of the owner/Board of Directors/Board of Members: when the authorized parties unanimously agree to terminate the company’s operations by a valid decision.
The business registration certificate may be revoked due to serious violations or failure to meet operating conditions — in this case, the business may be forced to cease operations by a decision of the competent authority.

Legal regulations on business dissolution

The primary legal basis is the regulations governing business dissolution, as stipulated by the 2020 Enterprise Law and its current guiding decrees and circulars. When preparing detailed documentation, it is essential to refer to the relevant articles and clauses in the Law (e.g., the Article on Dissolution and its guiding documents) to ensure legal compliance and avoid procedural errors.
Overview of dissolution procedures: The typical process includes the following main steps — notifying the dissolution decision, liquidating assets and settling debts, settling taxes, and submitting the dissolution dossier to the Department of Planning and Investment (or online through the National Information Portal if applicable). This is a series of mandatory procedures that businesses must follow according to regulations.
Obligations before the dissolution of a legal entity: the business must fulfill all tax obligations, pay social insurance for employees, and settle debts with partners and creditors. Completing these obligations helps prevent the dissolution process from being delayed and shortens the processing time.

Steps to dissolve a company

Step 1: Making a decision to dissolve the company. The owner or Board of Directors/Board of Members needs to hold a meeting, draft a decision and meeting minutes clearly stating the reasons, the date of cessation of operations, and the person in charge of liquidation. PMH assists in drafting the decision and minutes template according to regulations to ensure validity.
Step 2: Publicly notify government agencies, creditors, and employees. For example, announce on the national information portal, publish a notice as requested by the Department of Planning and Investment, and send notifications to the list of creditors; the publication period is usually stipulated to allow creditors to respond within a certain timeframe (refer to the Department’s current regulations). PMH assists in drafting and publishing the notice according to the correct template.
Step 3: Liquidate contracts, assets, and liabilities. The business prepares a report on asset liquidation, debt recovery (if any), termination of employment contracts, and completion of labor-related procedures as required (payment of severance pay if any, reporting reduction in social insurance contributions). PMH assists in preparing the liquidation report and provides guidance on handling obligations with employees to avoid future disputes.
Step 4: Finalize tax settlement with the tax authorities — this is often the most complex step: reviewing accounting records, reconciling invoices, completing tax returns, handling any outstanding tax liabilities, and obtaining a certificate of tax compliance. PMH assists in tax audits, report preparation, and direct communication with the tax authorities to minimize the risk of repeated requests for additional information.
Step 5: Submit the dissolution application to the Department of Planning and Investment (or submit online via the National Information Portal if the application meets the requirements). After completing the liquidation and settlement, the business prepares the required documents and submits them to request confirmation of the termination of legal entity operations. PMH prepares the complete set of documents and submits the dissolution application on behalf of the client under authorization when needed.
Step 6: Receive the business dissolution confirmation. Once the Department of Planning and Investment issues the confirmation notice and the competent authorities have confirmed that all obligations have been fulfilled, the dissolution process officially ends. Note that processing time may vary depending on the specific agency and documents.

Document checklist & reference time

Required documents: Decision and meeting minutes on dissolution (with signatures and seal), list of creditors, asset liquidation report, certificate of completion of tax obligations, certificate of bank account closure, and minutes of electronic invoice cancellation (if any).
Depending on the case, required documents include: written agreement with the creditor, proof of debt payment, documents related to assets (transfer/liquidation records), and subsidiary licenses that need to be canceled or processed as required by the competent authority.
Note: The number of copies, notarization requirements, and fees depend on the current requirements of the Department of Planning and Investment and the tax authorities — check specific requirements before submitting your application.

Important note: Before submitting the application, businesses need to carefully review their accounting records to avoid errors that could lead to multiple revisions. PMH handles the drafting and verification of all documents before submission, helping clients avoid wasting time due to requests for additional information from the authorities.

Difficulties and risks when dissolving a company

Prolonged tax settlement: Tax authorities often scrutinize tax settlement documents when a business dissolves, leading to the need for additional documentation, tax arrears, or penalties. Common reasons include discrepancies between invoices and accounting records or a lack of supporting documents—causing the settlement process to take longer and incurring unforeseen costs.
Tax arrears or uncancelled invoices: Businesses with outstanding tax debts, incomplete social insurance contributions for employees, or unrecancelled electronic invoices will face difficulties when filing for dissolution — the application may be pending until these issues are resolved. PMH assists in reviewing these issues and proposing appropriate solutions (payment, negotiation, or installments if justified).
Accounting and tax record errors: Incomplete books, incorrect declarations, or missing supporting documents are reasons why records need to be supplemented multiple times, prolonging the process and incurring review costs. This is especially common in small companies that do not have a dedicated accounting office.
Additional costs: Besides service fees, businesses may incur retroactive charges, administrative fines, review fees, notarization fees, and other charges if the application does not meet the requirements. PMH always lists these estimated costs so that clients are aware of the expenses beforehand.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How long does it take to dissolve a company?

Average processing time: approximately 4–6 months if the file is clean—meaning no outstanding tax debts, valid accounting records, and no major errors. This time includes the dissolution decision, asset liquidation, tax settlement, filing, and receiving confirmation. If there are outstanding tax debts, unresolved electronic invoices, or an audit conclusion, the process can take several months to over a year. Reference timelines: filing at the Department of Planning and Investment usually takes 15–30 working days, receiving confirmation takes an additional 1–2 weeks; tax settlement can take 1–3 months depending on the complexity of the file. If you need a precise estimate for your specific case, please send your information or documents to PMH for review and a reference timeframe.

Is it necessary to settle taxes when a company is dissolved?

Yes. Tax settlement is a mandatory step before filing for dissolution. The business must complete the tax return, pay any outstanding taxes, and obtain a certificate of tax compliance from the tax authorities. If you find this complicated, using a dissolution service will help speed up the process and reduce the risk of being asked for additional documents.

Can a business be dissolved if it still owes taxes or insurance?

In most cases, businesses cannot complete dissolution procedures if they still owe taxes or social insurance contributions. The competent authority requires that these debts be settled or that a clear payment agreement be reached with supporting documentation. PMH assists in reviewing these debts, compiling a list, and proposing solutions (payment, negotiation, or installment payments if conditions permit).

In what cases is dissolution required?

Businesses may be forced to dissolve if they commit serious legal violations (e.g., being declared bankrupt by a court), have their business registration certificate revoked by a state agency, or are inactive for an extended period as stipulated. Specific cases are regulated in the Enterprise Law and its guiding documents — contact PMH for a detailed review if you are concerned about this risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is dissolution different from bankruptcy? Dissolution is the proactive termination of operations decided by the owners; bankruptcy is due to the inability to pay debts and is decided by the court/law.
Is it necessary to destroy the company seal? Yes — after the liquidation and settlement are complete, the business needs to follow the procedures for disposing of the seal according to current regulations.
Does dissolution affect creditors? Creditors still have the right to demand payment; the business must compile a list of creditors and settle debts or reach an agreement with creditors before the legal entity ceases to exist.
