Cancelling or objecting to a strike-off
After a voluntary strike-off is filed, the CRO publishes a notice and there is a 90-day period. During it, the company can cancel its own strike-off on Form H17, and anyone can object on Form H16 on the grounds set out in the law.
Cancelling your own strike-off: Form H17
Changed your mind, or found an asset or debt? The company can cancel the strike-off process by filing Form H17 within the 90 days after the CRO's notice. We do this for €99.99 + VAT.
Objecting to someone else's: Form H16
Anyone can object within the 90-day period, but only on the grounds the law sets, for example that the company still owes money. Creditors use this to stop a company escaping a debt. We prepare and file objections for €99.99 + VAT.
If there's an objection
The strike-off doesn't go ahead while a valid objection stands. If the objection is later withdrawn, the company has to file a new Form H15. Striking off is always at the CRO's discretion.
