Details

It costs £468 to apply. We’ll reject your application if you do not include the correct fee.

You can only apply for administrative restoration if:

  • you were a director or shareholder
  • it was struck off the register and dissolved by the Registrar of Companies within the last 6 years
  • it was trading at the time it was dissolved

You’ll need to get a court order to restore the company if the directors applied for voluntary strike off.

You must print the form at full size on white A4 sized paper.
