Coordinate the work remaining before strike-off

Closing a company limited by guarantee doesn't have to be complicated. If your non-profit, club, or charity has stopped trading, has no outstanding debts, and hasn't disposed of any assets below value in recent months, voluntary dissolution could be the cleanest, most straightforward way to wrap things up—also known as voluntary striking off. Coddan CPM Ltd handles the process efficiently, guiding you through the legal requirements so nothing gets missed. Eligibility is straightforward: no trading activity in the last three months, no ongoing legal proceedings, and no creditor arrangements in place. If your organisation ticks those boxes, you're in good shape to start the process and close the chapter properly.

Explain what is outstanding, who currently handles the company accounts and whether there are assets, liabilities, refunds, employees or contracts. Coddan reviews the corporate position and coordinates the accepted closure work with your accountant or another appropriate accounting professional where required.

What the £362 + VAT package includes

The package includes the AssistedDissolution service, review of outstanding corporate compliance matters, guidance and coordination concerning final accounts, Corporation Tax, VAT/PAYE and HMRC matters, and guidance about company assets and remaining funds. DS01 preparation and filing, the applicable filing fee, Companies House/Gazette monitoring and confirmation of dissolution after the official process completes are included.

Coordination and substantive professional work

Closure coordination. Closure coordination brings together the agreed company and professional tasks before filing. It does not itself prepare every account, tax return or legal transaction. Those substantive tasks need their own accepted scope and charges.

Agree who performs each task and who approves it. The directors retain their company decisions and responsibilities.

Assets, restrictions and regulator matters

Tell Coddan about property, restricted funds, contracts and any charity registration. The articles and other restrictions affect what can happen to remaining assets. Actual transfers, conveyancing, charity-regulator closure and substantive tax work need their own scope.

Your information and approvals

Supply the company number, current records, financial and closure information, adviser details and official correspondence. Coddan’s order form records your instructions; it is separate from paper Form DS01 or the corresponding Companies House online application. The directors make the company decisions, supply accurate facts and provide the required application approvals and authentication. Directors remain responsible for statutory notifications; delivery by Coddan requires express assignment. Agree who handles tasks outside Coddan’s accepted work.

From coordinated preparation to the recorded outcome

Coddan reviews and coordinates the agreed work, prepares the application when the company is ready, handles agreed filing after the required director approvals and monitors Companies House and Gazette progress within the accepted instruction. Companies House examines the application and determines the official outcome. Coddan confirms dissolution when Companies House completes the process. Tell Coddan promptly about objections or changes affecting eligibility; these may interrupt the process and require further instructions.

Questions before choosing Full

Does Full mean every closure service is included? The package includes the listed review and coordination; actual accounting, tax, legal, property and insolvency work needs its own scope. Will Coddan confirm dissolution? This is included once Companies House completes the process. Can filing happen before all issues are resolved? Explain outstanding matters first so readiness and the appropriate route can be assessed.

If there is an existing strike-off notice, an objection or a failed application, explain the position to your personal manager before ordering. If the company is already dissolved, a further voluntary strike-off application is not the appropriate next step; ask about the route relevant to its present position.
