FAQ: Navigating Your Company Closure
The process starts with a board resolution and a declaration of solvency (for voluntary cases). You then appoint a liquidator to realize assets, pay off any remaining debts, and distribute the surplus to shareholders before finally informing ACRA of the dissolution.
In the Singapore context, these terms are often used interchangeably. Both refer to the legal process of closing a company, settling its accounts, and distributing assets so the entity can be formally dissolved.
The company liquidation process in Singapore generally begins with the directors and shareholders passing the necessary resolutions to wind up the company and appoint a liquidator. The appointed liquidator will then review the company’s financial position, settle outstanding liabilities, realise company assets, and distribute any remaining funds to shareholders or creditors where applicable. Throughout the process, the required statutory filings, tax clearances, and compliance matters are handled with the relevant authorities, including Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority and Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore, before the company is formally dissolved and removed from the register.
A “Strike Off” is a simplified process for dormant or small companies with no assets/liabilities. A formal company liquidation service is necessary for active companies with more complex financial footprints.
