Category D – Business Entity Applications for Reinstatement

Entails the review and processing of an application for reinstatement, reentry or restoration of a Virginia

business entity’s existence, a foreign business entity’s certificate of authority or registration to transact

business in Virginia, or a Virginia or foreign partnership’s or limited partnership’s status as a registered

limited liability partnership, along with any other documents that are required to be filed to obtain

reinstatement, reentry or restoration.

(Note: Requests for a reinstatement instruction packet, which lists all of the requirements for

reinstatement, are normally processed promptly and are not subject to expedited service.)

Expedited Service Schedule

– Documents received in the Clerk’s Office by 12:00 noon will be processed by

Same Day Service

4:00 p.m. on the day of receipt.

– Documents received in the Clerk’s Office by 4:00 p.m. will be processed by 4:00

Next Day Service

p.m. on the next business day after receipt.

Business Day Service – Documents received in the Clerk’s Office by 4:00 p.m. will be processed by 4:00

p.m. on the 2

business day after receipt.

A document accompanied by a request for expedited service is considered “received” when it is received and

identified as an “expedite” by the Clerk’s Office staff that processes such expedited documents.

The above schedules for the anticipated completion of expedited services are based on full business days

(8:15 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.). When the Commission is closed for all or part of a day due to a

holiday

emergency (e.g., inclement weather), the schedules will be extended for a like period of time.

The Clerk’s Office strives to provide expedited services as promptly as possible. A request for Next Day

Service does not preclude Same Day Service when that can be reasonably accomplished.

Effective Dates

Virginia Business Entities – Documents submitted for filing by a Virginia business entity are effective when

filed with the Commission or upon the issuance of a certificate by the Commission, unless a delayed effective

date is permitted by statute and set forth in the document. See §§ 13.1-606, 13.1-806, 13.1-1004, 13.1-1203,

50-73.17 and 50-73.83 of the Code of Virginia. (Note: It is not sufficient to request a delayed effective date in

the cover letter that accompanies the document.)

Foreign (Non-Virginia) Business Entities – Documents submitted for filing by a foreign business entity are

effective when filed with the Commission or upon the issuance of a certificate by the Commission. See §§

13.1-606, 13.1-806, 13.1-1004, 13.1-1203, and 50-73.17 of the Code of Virginia. (Note: There is no provision

in the Code of Virginia for a delayed effective date with respect to the filing of a foreign business entity

document. Also, a foreign business entity document may not be filed with the Commission unless it is

effective in the foreign business entity’s home jurisdiction.)

To obtain the earliest possible effective date in accordance with the schedule for expedited services, the

document MUST (1) be presented with an Expedited Service Request form, (2) be accompanied by payment

for all required fees and (3) be acceptable for filing as presented to the Commission. Otherwise, the

document will become effective when all deficiencies are remedied and it is reviewed, processed and filed.
