Can I liquidate my company online?

If you have made the decision to liquidate your limited company, you may be wondering what the process entails and whether closing a company is something which can be done online without the need to have any physical meetings or face-to-face contact. The simple answer to this is yes, however, first you must understand the various ways a company can be closed online and identify which process is right for your business.

What are my options for closing a company online?

When it comes to closing a company, there are a number of ways this can be achieved. The right option for you will largely depend on the financial position of the company at the time of its closure.

For those companies which are able to settle their debts and other outstanding liabilities, they can apply directly to Companies House online to have their company struck off the register of active companies; this process is also known as dissolving a business. This is a relatively quick and straightforward process, however, this closure method is only suitable for solvent companies.

So what happens if the company is insolvent and unable to fully repay creditors and clear its debts?
