Domestications
A foreign corporation, limited liability company or business trust can become a Virginia corporation, limited liability company or business trust by filing articles of domestication. That is, the business entity ceases to be incorporated, organized or formed under the laws of the foreign jurisdiction and instead becomes incorporated, organized or formed under the laws of Virginia.
