Legislature passed Senate
Bill 5999 which allows for conversions of domestic entities. Domestic
entities will be able to change their state of incorporation and/or their
entity type. Example a WA Corporation can convert to a Delaware LLC, a WA LLC
could convert to a WA Corporation etc. Normally, this type of change would
require the entity to get a new UBI number; in these cases they will keep their
same UBI number as well as their original date of incorporation.
We realize that a change in entity type will affect some of
our partners licensing requirements. BLS has requested that Office of the
Secretary of State report the UBIs that have converted to BLS on a regular
basis. BLS will sort the UBIs by the licenses that they hold and report by
email to our partners that need to know.If you wish to receive a report of UBIs that have converted that affect your license(s) please email BLS at dorblspartner@dor.wa.gov by June 12, 2014. If we do not receive notice from you we will assume you do not want to receive the report.
Please include the following in your email request:
Your agency and division or your City name and the name and email address of the person(s) you wish to receive the notification.
Example:
The
Department of Licensing, Dealers Services would like to receive a report of SOS
entities that have converted. Please email this report to John Doe at JohnDoe@wa.gov.
OR
The City of Olympia would like to receive a report of the SOS entities that have converted. Please email this report to John Doe at JohnDoe@wa.gov.
