New Service Offering: Stamping on Variations to Trusts
|
Closing a Company
We have seen a noticeable decrease in new company incorporations Australia-Wide in the past 8 months (Jan to Aug), compared to the same period in 2021, new company incorporations decreased from 203,385 to 189,004 - being a reduction of 7.1%.
In addition, according to ASIC insolvency statistics, the number of companies entering external administration and controller appointments have increased by 16% - from 4,235 in FY2021 to 4,912 in FY2022.
Closing a company with ASIC in Australia, is known as company deregistration or voluntary deregistration. There are several steps and processes to complete the closing of a company and our team can help you with this.
We can apply for voluntary deregistration of your company through ASIC if you no longer require the company and wish to close it. When closed you will no longer need to pay ASIC’s annual review fee.
HOW TO DEREGISTER A COMPANY?
Once an order to close your company is received, Patricia Holdings will prepare all the documentation that day during business hours and email the Form 6010 to you for signing. Once signed and returned, we will lodge the Form 6010 electronically with ASIC. Copies of the lodged documents and resolutions will be emailed to you that day.
ASIC will then notify Patricia Holdings when they have approved the application (usually about 2 weeks) via post. The application to deregister the company will then be published in the ASIC Gazette which usually takes a period of 2 months. Following this, ASIC will deregister the company and send a notification to Patricia Holdings, which we will forward to you immediately via email.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER CLOSING A COMPANY
Once you close your company, it will no longer be operational and can no longer do anything in its own right. Upon deregistration, company officers cease their obligations to the deregistered company. However, the company would still be required to keep its books for a period of three years following deregistration.
