Additional Information

Disincorporation is the transfer of a business’s assets from a limited company to its shareholders who continue the business as a sole trader or a partnership. Such a transfer of assets would normally be subject to corporation tax on disposal of the assets by the company, but HMRC is offering tax relief to qualifying businesses, known as Disincorporation Relief.

All limited companies, whether they trade or not, must deliver accounts to Companies House within specified time limits. Our FAQ section contains more information about the statutory requirements of dormant companies.

Where we are Company Secretary, our experienced team will ensure that your non-trading or dormant company’s accounts are prepared professionally and in line with the latest legal requirements, and are submitted to Companies House on time.

Product and Services

Companies limited by guarantee are a form of legal entity mainly used by charitable or non-profit making organisations. They are private companies where the liability of the members is limited to the amount of money they have paid to the organisation as a guarantee in case the company is wound up while they are a member (or within one year of their ceasing to be a member). The amount that is guaranteed is usually £1.

A Limited Liability Partnership is a relatively recent form of legal business entity with limited liability, commonly known as an LLP, and is quite different from the original general or limited partnerships. There are currently almost 40,000 LLPs registered with Companies House. An LLP has no directors, no shareholders and no share capital.

An LLP combines some of the flexibility of a traditional partnership (and is taxed as a partnership), but with the advantages of limited liability and is therefore increasingly favoured by entrepreneurs who wish to benefit from the protection and flexibility offered through this vehicle.

A private limited company is the most common vehicle for carrying on a business and is highly versatile.Forming a new company is a straightforward process when you use an experienced incorporation agent. You will find many websites offering cheap company registrations, but many of these do not offer the level of service you expect. You may end up with a shelf company, or without any support as to your next steps.

By using London Registrars’ professional company formation service, you will automatically benefit from our experienced legal and business support, regardless of whether you are a large or multinational company opening a subsidiary in the UK or are starting a new business as a sole director. Our services are tailor-made to our clients’ needs, and quality of service is our top priority.

A public limited company must have at least two directors and a company secretary who is on record with Companies House.A public limited company also must have issued share capital of at least £50,000 (or the prescribed Euro equivalent as set from time to time by the Secretary of State). The liability of each member is limited to the value of shares a member holds.

Registering your company as a PLC entails many benefits as well as more stringent capitalisation and governance requirements. For more information please visit the plc section in our FAQs.A company can apply to Companies House for voluntary dissolution or striking off when it is no longer needed. To be eligible, the company can’t have changed its name, traded or otherwise carried on business (although disposing of assets is permissible) in the three months before it submits the application.

To take advantage of voluntary striking off, the company must be free of any debts prior to application, as this is not an alternative to formal insolvency proceedings and creditors can object to the dissolution or apply for the company to be restored to the register at a later date.

Directors and shareholders of a company should be aware that upon dissolution of a company, any assets still in the company as well as any unpaid share capital become bona vacantia, i.e. have no owner and are therefore property of the Crown. The Treasury Solicitor is legally entitled to call for the company’s shareholders to make payment for any unpaid share capital, but this is only likely to be a danger where this is a significant sum. To avoid this, we recommend carrying out a reduction in share capital before dissolution if unpaid share capital is more than £500.
