Withdrawal of registration by foreign covered entity

17-7936. Withdrawal of registration by foreign covered entity. (a) A foreign covered entity may cancel its registration by filing with the secretary of state a certificate of cancellation executed by an authorized person, together with a fee if authorized by law, as provided by K.S.A. 17-7910, and amendments thereto, and the business entity information report and required fee. The certificate of cancellation shall state that the foreign covered entity surrenders its authority to transact business in the state of Kansas and withdraws therefrom. The certificate of cancellation shall provide the address to which the secretary of state may mail any process against the foreign covered entity that may be served upon the secretary of state. A cancellation does not terminate the authority of the secretary of state to accept service of process on the foreign covered entity with respect to causes of action arising out of the doing of business in the state of Kansas. (b) The filing of a certificate of dissolution or certificate of cancellation issued by the proper official of the state or other jurisdiction in which a foreign covered entity is organized shall have the same effect as the filing of a certificate of cancellation as provided for in subsection (a) above.
