If handwritten, the form must be legible and completed in black or blue-black ink in order to permit reproduction. The nonrefundable filing fee for this form is $70. Checks should be made payable to the Department of State. Checks must contain a commercially pre-printed name and address. This form and all accompanying documents shall be mailed to the address stated above. Who should file this form? If a registered foreign association merges into a nonregistered foreign association or converts to a foreign association required to register with the Department of State to do business in this Commonwealth, the association shall deliver to the Department for filing an application for Transfer of Registration. When an application for Transfer of Registration takes effect, the registration of the registered foreign association to do business in this Commonwealth is transferred without interruption to the association into which it has merged or to which it has been converted. The purpose of this filing is to clarify the status of the registered foreign association in the public records of the Department of State. A Transfer of Registration has the twofold effect of canceling the authority of the foreign association to do business in Pennsylvania while at the same time reregistering it as the new type of foreign association. If the reregistered foreign association subsequently wishes to terminate its registration to do business, it may do so under 15 Pa.C.S. § 419.
