A practical fit check

Is strike-off
the lawful exit?

Inactivity alone is not enough when debts, assets, proceedings or recent restricted activity remain.

Inactive and clean

Potentially suitable after filings and liabilities are reconciled.

Debt or creditor issue

Do not use strike-off to bypass claims.

Pending proceeding

Regulatory, tax or court matters can block or reshape closure.

Assets remain

Realise or lawfully deal with property before application.

STK-2 strike-off

Eligible. Cleared. Declared.

Dissolution is not an amnesty.

Past liability can survive, and qualifying stakeholders may seek restoration through statutory channels.

01 / Outcome

What you receive,
ready to use.

We assess STK-2 readiness, identify filing and liability blockers, and coordinate closure records before an application is made through C-PACE.

The company is inactive or otherwise fits a lawful strike-off ground.

02

Assets and liabilities can be realised, settled or properly dealt with before application.

03

Bank, tax and statutory filing positions can be reconciled.

04

No disqualifying recent transaction, prohibited circumstance or unresolved regulatory issue has been concealed.

Recent name, office, asset-disposal or other restricted changes must be checked against current strike-off rules.

Choose the closure route by facts

Administrative removal is only one option.
