You can dissolve/terminate by completing the Statement of Dissolution  and/or Statement of Termination .

The Division strongly suggests consulting with a CPA or attorney in selecting the appropriate document. Below is a basic definition of a statement of dissolution versus a statement of termination.

1. Dissolution - When a Statement of Dissolution is filed, it starts a process of winding up the affairs of an entity. As per Utah Code Ann. 48-3a-701 et seq., a LLC continues after dissolution only for the purpose of winding up its affairs which may include, to "preserve the LLC activities, affairs, and property as a going concern for a reasonable time." It can also prosecute or defend itself in official proceedings, transfer property, settle disputes, or terminate the entity. As per Utah Code Ann. 48-3a-704, a dissolution may be rescinded unless a Statement of Termination has been filed. Also note that an Administrative Dissolution is different and may not be rescinded.
2. Termination - When a Statement of Termination is filed, it terminates the existence of the entity. While dissolution allows the entity to continue to operate, termination is the final step in the winding up of a business.  

After completing one or both of the forms you can submit either or both online  via the “Submit a Paper Filing” option.
