Missouri Unemployment Tax Account Closure

An employer should inform the Division of Employment Security (DES) when a change in ownership of business occurs by completing the Employer Change Request. The information also may be provided online through UInteract.

A business may change ownership due to a sale, lease, reorganization, merger, foreclosure, or inheritance. A change of ownership also may occur when the business makes a change in legal status such as when a partnership adds or changes a partner; an owner forms a corporation; or an entity changes its state of registration. The new owner or entity needs to complete the Unemployment Tax Registration form and return it to the address listed on the form. The new owner may also provide the information online through UInteract.
