How do I dissolve a Rhode Island LLC?
File Articles of Dissolution with the Rhode Island Secretary of State, settle all debts, close business accounts, and file final federal and state tax returns.
What happens if I don’t formally dissolve my Rhode Island LLC?
Your LLC stays legally active. Annual fees keep accruing. Eventually the state administratively dissolves it, which can damage your standing for future business filings.
How long does it take to dissolve a Rhode Island LLC?
State filing typically processes in 1–7 business days. Full wind-up including tax filing and account closure can take several weeks.
