Form

Apply for restoration of a limited liability partnership (LL RT01)

Use this form to apply for administrative restoration of a limited liability partnership (LLP) to the Companies House register.

Documents

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 an LLP member
  • the LLP was struck off the register and dissolved by the Registrar of Companies within the last 6 years
  • the LLP was trading at the time it was dissolved

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

How to apply

You’ll need to include:

  • your completed LL RT01 form
  • all outstanding documents, including fees - for example, accounts or confirmation statements that should have been filed when the LLP was dissolved
  • all outstanding late filing penalties for accounts - contact Companies House if you need to find out what penalties are due
  • a bona vacantia waiver letter - contact the Bona Vacantia Division

The former LLP member is responsible for providing the bona vacantia waiver letter. This costs £64.

You must post all this information to Companies House main office. We’ll reject your application if you do not include all information.
