But what do you do when you want to cease operation?

At some point of your business career, the time might come when you decide not to continue working through your own company. There might be several reasons for this. However, when your business is no longer active, and it seems it will not be active again in the future, you may want to initiate the liquidation of the company.

Company liquidation is the official process of closing down your company. If you decide to do so yourself, the process is referred to as “voluntary liquidation”. Voluntary liquidation in Hungary is a lengthy process with several things to keep in mind.

• To start the procedure, it is essential that the company have no outstanding debts or claims.
• The company bank account cannot be closed while the liquidation is not finished.
