Sebastian,
With corporations in New York when you add or remove shareholders you would only need to amend your current bylaws. If its an S-Corporation you would also need to submit a new form 2553 (“S-Corporation Election“) to the IRS.
Unless your Articles of Incorporation specifically list shareholders there is no need to file Articles of Amendment with the state.
I hope this answer offers you some assistance to your needs.
