In order to reinstate, the business entity should:
- Print the Reinstatement Application via the Organization Search page of the Office of the Secretary of State website
- Identifying the business entity
- Select the Reinstatement Package Button (top of the page)
- Mail or hand deliver the Reinstatement Application to the Office of the Secretary of State. The SOS will request, on the entities behalf, a letter of good standing from the Kentucky Department of Revenue and, in the case of profit companies, the Division of Unemployment Insurance. When both good standing letters are received, the SOS will process the reinstatement application.
