About CloseWise
CloseWise exists because closing a US company is harder than opening one. We make the ending as clean and predictable as the start.
Why we exist
Thousands of US companies are abandoned every year instead of being dissolved. The owners keep receiving penalty notices for years.
Forming a company takes ten minutes online. Closing one means coordinating the state, the IRS, a registered agent, a bank and sometimes several tax accounts, in a specific order. Most founders only do this once, so there is no reason to learn it.
CloseWise does only this. We know which states require tax clearance first, which forms a foreign-owned LLC still has to file in its final year, and how to reinstate a company the state has already dissolved so it can be closed properly.
How we work
- 1
Tell us about the company
State, formation year, what has been filed, and where the owners live. Five minutes.
- 2
Get a checklist and a quote
We check the state records and send a step-by-step plan with a fixed service fee and the state fees listed at cost.
- 3
We file and close everything
Catch-up filings, final returns, the dissolution itself and account closures, with status updates until the last confirmation arrives.
What we are not
CloseWise is a filing and coordination service. We are not a law firm or a CPA firm and we do not give legal or tax advice. Where a final tax return needs a licensed preparer, we work with one and keep you informed.
