Change the legal form

Learn how to go from one legal form to another without losing information.

The process of changing the legal form of a legal entity can be approached in two distinct ways, based on the presence of securities or governing bodies associated with the entity.

• With assets (securities or governing bodies).

• Without assets (securities or governing bodies).
