how to liquidate company without profit

Postby jack12 » Wed Jul 21, 2010 11:52 am

Hi,

I have a small company not making profit. It has no employees, only a director and secretary.
About £100 in capital - can I do it myself

Hello

If the company has limited debt (less than £10k) and no assets, you can use a process called company dissolution which is far cheaper than standard liquidation.

Hi Jack12

As Derek says, dissolution may well be the right solution for you. To use this procedure the ompany must have been dormant for 3 months (ie no trading in the last 3 months) and have no cash in the bank or assets. The process includs writing to all of your creditors and giving them 3 months to disagree. If there are no objections, the dissolution can go through. This will cost far less than liquidating the business (around £1500 compared to £5000).
