Object to a limited company being struck off
When you can object
You can object to a limited company being struck off the Companies Register if:
- you are a shareholder or other interested party, such as a creditor
- you have a reason to stop the company being removed from the register - for example, you have a legal claim against them or they owe you money
You can only object after notice that the company is going to be struck off has been published in The Gazette.
You must have evidence to support your objection - for example, invoices or other evidence showing the company owes you money.
You can withdraw your own company’s application to be struck off if you’re a director.
If the company has already been struck off
If the company has already been struck off, you’ll need to apply for a court order to restore a company instead. You can only do this in certain circumstances - for example, if they owed you money when they were dissolved.
