Redomestication refers to when a business changes the state that’s considered its home state (also known as its “domicile state”). It’s a process that shifts a company’s charter to a different state, altering its residence.
Before I get into what’s involved with redomestication, let’s first talk about “domestication” and a business’s domicile.
Business domestication and domicile
Generally, a limited liability company or corporation’s domicile state is the state where the business was legally formed. Domestication, establishing a home state, gets completed by filing forms called Articles of Organization (LLC) or Articles of Incorporation (corporation). The domicile is usually where the principal place of business resides.
