It was decharted by the State Committee on December 3, 2006 and merged with Kings County to form the Brooklyn-Queens Libertarian Party in 2007. That chapter was later decharted and the Brooklyn Libertarian Party formed its own chapter in 2009 and the Queens County had its own chapter.

The Queens County Libertarian Party was decharted for a second time, on December 14, 2016. As of April 2, 2017, the Libertarian Party of Queens County was once again a chartered affiliate of the Libertarian Party of New York.
