How to Terminate Registration

An executive agency lobbyist has an affirmative duty​ to notify the office of the Executive Branch Ethics Commission ("the Commission") within 30 days after the termination of an engagement.  The lobbyist completes the Termination Notification and submits the form along with his or her final Updated Registration Statement, Executive Agency Lobbyist to the Commission.  Information on a final update should report activity, expenditures,financial transactions, and compensation that occured from the beginning of the reporting period through the termination date.


When all lobbyists engaged by an employer or real party in interest terminate their registrations with the Commission, then the employer/ real party in interest has effectively terminated their registration with the Commission. The employer/real party in interest must also file a final Updated Registration Statement with the Commission and pay the $500 registration fee for the final reporting period. (KRS 11A.211)
