Application for Striking Off LLP
For an LLP with no assets, no liabilities and no business activity, striking off offers a faster route to close it down than a full winding up.
Striking off, filed in Form 24, is a route to close an LLP that hasn't carried on business, or has closed operations, and has no assets or liabilities to settle. It requires all pending Annual Return and Statement of Account filings to be brought up to date, partner consent, and a set of supporting documents before the Registrar removes the LLP's name from the register.

Eligibility for striking off
Not every LLP qualifies for this faster closure route.
No Business Activity

No Assets or Liabilities
The LLP should have no outstanding assets or liabilities at the time of the application.
Compliance Cleared
Any pending Annual Return or Statement of Account filings generally need to be brought up to date before applying.
Our process
From initial consultation to completion.
Confirm Eligibility
Check that the LLP has no business activity, no assets and no liabilities as required for striking off.
Clear Pending Filings
Bring any outstanding Form 11 or Form 8 filings up to date before applying.
Prepare Consent & Affidavits
Collect partner consent and the affidavits and declarations required for the application.
File Form 24
Submit the application to the Registrar of Companies and track it through to approval.
Why striking off applications get rejected
What sets our approach apart.
Pending filings weren't cleared
An application filed while Form 11 or Form 8 is still outstanding is a common reason for rejection or delay.
LLP isn't actually dormant
If the LLP still holds assets or has unpaid liabilities, striking off isn't the right route โ winding up is.
Documentation is incomplete
Missing partner consent or an incomplete affidavit can hold up the application at the Registrar's end.
