Company Deregistration
Company Deregistration: Simplified Cancellation for Non-Operating Companies, Saving Time and Costs
“Company Deregistration” specifically refers to the “deregistration of non-operating companies” procedure under Part 15AA of the Companies Ordinance. It is a relatively simple, fast, and low-cost approach, exclusively applicable to private companies that have been dissolved, never operated, or have ceased operations, with no outstanding debts (including taxes) or assets. Compass Accounting assists eligible companies in completing the deregistration process quickly, eliminating the cumbersome liquidation procedure, allowing you to settle company affairs effortlessly.

- Document Preparation and Submission: Prepare and submit all required forms to the Companies Registry, including application forms signed by directors, shareholders, or the company secretary.
