Close your Ltd —
cleanly and correctly.
When a company has served its purpose, striking it off the register is faster and cheaper than liquidation — as long as it's solvent and no longer trading. We handle the DS01 end-to-end.

Every step of a solvent strike-off.
DS01 prepared & filed
We draft, sign-off and file the DS01 with Companies House — the statutory form used to strike a solvent company off the register.

Guidance and templates for the majority director sign-off Companies House requires, ready in your inbox to counter-sign.
Notice to interested parties
A ready-to-send checklist for HMRC, employees, banks, landlords and known creditors — the 7-day statutory notice handled cleanly.
Solvency & eligibility review
We check the company hasn't traded, changed its name, or paid dividends in the last 3 months — the common reasons DS01s get rejected.
£33 Companies House fee included
One flat £85 covers our filing service and the £33 statutory fee. No surprise charges once the Gazette notice runs.
Post-strike-off record pack
Once the London Gazette confirms strike-off (about 2 months) we send you the archive pack — final accounts template, register download and confirmation.

FAQ
Answers before you close.
Can I dissolve a company that still has money in the bank?+
Any remaining cash or assets become bona vacantia and pass to the Crown once the company is struck off. Pay yourself the balance (via salary, dividend or capital distribution) before you file.
What if my company has debts?+
DS01 is only for solvent companies. If your company can't pay its debts you'll need a Members' Voluntary Liquidation or a Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation — we can refer you to a licensed insolvency practitioner.
How long does dissolution take?+
Companies House processes the DS01 within a few days, then a two-month objection window runs in the London Gazette. Total: roughly 2–3 months.
Do I still need to file final accounts?+
You must inform HMRC that the company is closing and file any outstanding Corporation Tax and PAYE returns. Companies House will chase overdue Confirmation Statements — we advise clearing those first.
Can a dissolved company be restored later?+
Yes — via administrative or court restoration. See our Company Restoration service if you need a struck-off company reinstated.
