When DOO liquidation makes sense
A DOO liquidation makes sense if a company is to be dissolved in an orderly manner and the assets, debts, contracts, documents and responsibilities can be audited. It becomes critical if only "the company is to be deleted" while accounting, tax obligations, creditors, personnel issues or current contracts remain open.
The entry in the register alone is not decisive for a clean exit. The decisive factor is whether the company can be finally wound up.
These points in particular need to be clarified before the start:
- Exit route: voluntary liquidation, shortened procedure, other solution or restructuring of outstanding obligations first?
- Decision-making capacity: Who can make decisions, who becomes liquidator and who provides binding documents?
- Obligations: What contracts, liabilities, tax issues, accounting issues or labor law issues still exist?
- Evidence: Which register, accounting, tax and financial statement documents are available or missing?
- Eligibility for closure: Can the company really be deleted or is there a risk of queries, blocking or follow-up proceedings?
Note: The liquidation of a DOO affects Montenegrin company law, registration law, tax law and, if applicable, labor law. This page provides a practical overview of the process and does not replace an individual legal, tax or official examination of the case.
