Other ways of closing an economic association

In addition to being closed through liquidation and bankruptcy, an economic association can also be closed through merger, simplified winding up or deregistration.

An economic association can merge into another association. This is called a merger ("fusion" in Swedish). The association must notify the Swedish Companies Registration Office of the merger.

Simplified winding up is a closing of the association without prior liquidation. The association must apply for simplified winding up with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

If the economic association has not had any activity in the last ten years, you can deregister it. You do this by sending an application to the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
