***Administrative Dissolution/Forfeiture Notices***
If your entity has been administratively dissolved due to failure to pay a tax or file a tax return to the South Carolina Department of Revenue (DOR), you must first contact the DOR at (803) 896-1730. The DOR will assist you in curing any filing deficiencies with their office. Once you have complied with the DOR, they will issue a Certificate of Tax Compliance. This certificate should be filed with the Secretary of State’s Office with the Application for Reinstatement. Please see our Forms and Fees page for additional information.
