Wisconsin’s Department of Financial Institutions provides Articles of Conversion (Form 1000) for entity conversions, replacing older conversion/merger combined reports i.e., Wisconsin’s Merger/Conversion Report MC‑500 which is no longer an active.
Mergers are now handled on Articles of Merger (Form 2000), a standardized, statute‑aligned document. Wisconsin overhauled its business entity statutes (mergers, conversions, domestications, interest exchanges) under 2021 Wis. Act 267 and related updates. These reforms standardized all entity‑transaction filings, eliminating older, non‑statutory forms such as MC‑500.
