Process of Restoration of a Company

Restoring a dissolved company involves several steps to bring it back onto the Companies House register. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the process:

Determine Eligibility:

We will assess if your company qualifies for administrative restoration(Case Enquiry). This typically applies if the company was struck off by Companies House and it was trading at the time of dissolution. The company must have been trading at the time it was struck off, and the application must be made within six years of the dissolution date.

Form RT01:

We will prepare Form RT01 along with all other necessary details required by the authorities. This includes providing information about the company, the reason for its restoration, any overdue confirmation statements, registered office address changes, overdue micro-entity accounts, and a bona vacantia waiver letter if needed. The waiver letter applies if the company had assets, such as bank accounts or funds, that were frozen and passed to the Crown at the time of dissolution.

Note:
This package applies to administrative restoration cases only. Our basic package covers the initial enquiry and preparation of Form RT01 only. Any additional forms required by the authorities will be charged separately after we assess your case and communicate the specific requirements. Alternatively, you can choose our second package, which includes commonly required forms for restoration. However, please be aware that the authorities may still request extra forms beyond those covered, which will incur additional charges.

All package prices reflect our service fees only. Government fees, penalties, and surcharges are not included and must be paid directly by the company. Rest assured, we will guide you through the payment process. The current government fee for administrative restoration RT01 Form is around £468.

What are the methods for restoring a dissolved company?

There are two primary methods to restore a dissolved company:

Administrative Restoration: Applicable if the company was struck off by the Registrar of Companies within the last six years and was trading at the time of dissolution. This process is initiated by a former director or shareholder without the need for a court order.
Court Restoration: Required if the company doesn’t meet the criteria for administrative restoration, such as voluntary dissolution by directors. This process involves applying to the court to have the company reinstated.

What happens after a company is restored?

Upon restoration, the company is deemed to have continued in existence as if it had not been dissolved or struck off. This means it can resume business activities, recover assets, and is subject to all obligations as before dissolution. It’s essential to update company records, inform relevant authorities, and ensure compliance with any outstanding regulatory requirements.

To apply for administrative restoration:

Eligibility: Ensure you were a director or shareholder at the time of dissolution, the company was dissolved by the Registrar within the last six years, and it was trading at the time of dissolution.
Application: Submit Form RT01 to Companies House, along with a £468 restoration fee.
Compliance: Provide any outstanding documents, such as annual accounts or confirmation statements, and settle any penalties or fees owed.
Consent: If the company had assets at the time of dissolution, obtain a waiver letter from the relevant Crown representative (Bona Vacantia division).
