Limited Company Dissolution Services in London
Limited company dissolution services help you legally close down a limited company that’s stopped trading, handling the Companies House paperwork, HMRC notifications, and final accounts so the company is removed from the register cleanly and correctly. It’s the process that officially ends your company’s existence once you no longer need it.
In simple terms, dissolution (also called striking off) is the formal route for closing a solvent limited company that has no outstanding debts it can’t pay. It’s different from liquidation, which is used when a company owes money it can’t clear. Dissolution is the quicker, cheaper option for companies that are simply no longer needed.

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.Posted on Google![]()

Why Professional Limited Company Dissolution Services in London Are Essential?
If you want to close your limited company, you must know that it involves strict legal timelines, specific filings with Companies House and HMRC, and rules that are easy to get wrong without help. Missing a single step can lead to rejection of your application, delays of several months, or personal liability further down the line. Here’s why professional limited company dissolution services in London matter:
Dissolving a company without following the proper procedure can lead to penalties. We make sure every filing, notification, and deadline is met in line with the Companies Act 2006, so your closure is fully compliant from start to finish.
Get the process wrong, and directors can remain personally exposed to unpaid tax, unresolved creditor claims, or an objection from HMRC that reopens the whole matter. We settle your tax position and notify the right parties before you apply, so nothing is left unresolved.
A dissolved company still on the hook for an old tax bill or a missed VAT return isn't truly closed. We handle your final accounts, Corporation Tax return, and any outstanding HMRC matters, so you get a genuine, final close with nothing left outstanding.
Closing a company can feel like a big step, especially if you've run it for years. Having a dedicated team manage the paperwork, deadlines, and HMRC correspondence means you're not left guessing whether you've done it correctly.

FAQs for Limited Company Dissolution Service in London
How long does it take for the company to actually disappear?
Once we have sent the forms off, it usually takes Companies House approximately 3 to 4 months to officially dissolve the company. This is a waiting period they have by law to give people a chance to object. We keep an eye on it for you the whole time.
Who do I need to tell about the company closing?
Under UK law, you must notify any “interested parties” within 7 days of applying for a strike-off. This includes employees, creditors and shareholders. It also includes any managers of the pension fund. Our Limited company dissolution service includes a full list of who you need to contact.
Do I have to do a final set of accounts?
Yes. HMRC will want to see one last set of figures to make sure the tax is right. As part of our LTD company closure and dissolution support, we can help figure out exactly what they need. So you do not have to do more work than necessary.
What if I change my mind halfway through?
No issue! You can withdraw the application at any time before the company is officially struck off. This is usually done by filing a formal withdrawal notice with Companies House. Just let us know, and we will do that too.
Will closing my company hurt my credit score?
As long as you use a proper Limited company dissolution service and pay your bills, it should not affect your personal credit at all. It is a perfectly normal way to end a business.
