Deregistration & Liquidation

An abandoned company keeps generating filing duties, penalties and restrictions on the legal representative — in serious cases affecting travel and personal credit. Formal deregistration runs in four stages: liquidation committee filing, public notice, tax clearance and corporate deregistration.

Overview

We first assess feasibility (tax status, abnormal-list records, eligibility for simplified deregistration), then choose the route.

What is included

  • Feasibility assessment and route advice (simplified / standard)
  • Liquidation committee filing and creditor notice
  • Tax settlement, invoice cancellation and tax deregistration
  • Corporate, bank account and qualification cancellation
  • Abnormal-list removal and penalty coordination

Process

  • 1Status check and route confirmation
  • 2Liquidation filing and notice (45 days)
  • 3Tax settlement and deregistration
  • 4Corporate, bank and qualification closure

FAQ

The company never traded — can I close it directly?
If there are no debts and no trading, simplified deregistration applies: a 20-day public notice with no objections, then closure. Much faster.
Can I deregister with outstanding tax?
Tax, surcharges and penalties must be settled before tax deregistration. We reconcile the outstanding amounts with the authority first.
What if the company is on the abnormal list?
Remove the abnormal status first (late annual report, address change or tax filing), then proceed. We handle both together.
