How to Close a Company in Ireland

Irish Formations can help you perform a voluntary strike of your company as long as assets and liabilities are nil. We perform the strike off over a three month period by writing to the appropriate Government departments. All annual returns must be up to date to perform this process. We will firstly write to revenue requesting that the company can be struck off the register. Once this is complete we will prepare the final documentation, and send it to the companies registrations office.

Procedure:

• We ensure all annual returns are up to date and all statutory accounts have been filed.
• We send a letter to Revenue in Ireland asking for permission to strike the company off the register.
• We draft all supporting documentation, Minutes, and Statement of Ceased Trading or the company has never traded.
• We take advertising in a National Newspaper regarding the Strike Off. (Compulsory)
• We prepare the documentation & get the Director to sign & return to us for processing.

All documents are prepared for signing and sent to you prior to the process starting. The cost of this Strike-off Process INCLUDES advertising costs with a National Newspaper. All Annual Returns are required to be up to date for this process to be filed. If the company has any late fees with the companies registrations office, these will need to be paid and filed also.
