2005 Connecticut Code - Sec. 33-932. Withdrawal of foreign corporation.

      Sec. 33-932. Withdrawal of foreign corporation. (a) A foreign corporation authorized to transact business in this state may not withdraw from this state until it obtains a certificate of withdrawal from the Secretary of the State.

      (b) A foreign corporation authorized to transact business in this state may apply for a certificate of withdrawal by delivering an application to the Secretary of the State for filing. The application shall set forth: (1) The name of the foreign corporation and the name of the state or country under whose law it is incorporated; (2) that it is not transacting business in this state and that it surrenders its authority to transact business in this state; (3) that it revokes the authority of its registered agent to accept service on its behalf and appoints the Secretary of the State and his successors in office as its agent for service of process in any proceeding based on a cause of action arising during the time it was authorized to transact business in this state; (4) a mailing address to which the Secretary of the State may mail a copy of any process served on him under subdivision (3) of this subsection; and (5) a commitment to notify the Secretary of the State in the future of any change in its mailing address.

      (c) After the withdrawal of the corporation is effective, service of process on the Secretary of the State as provided in section 33-929 is service on the foreign corporation.
