Companies can be removed from the register for missed filings, voluntary strike-off, or other reasons. Restoration may be needed to recover bank funds or property, resolve contracts, pursue claims, or continue trading. We’ll assess eligibility, advise on the appropriate route, and complete the paperwork and overdue filings on your behalf.
Our specialists coordinate with Companies House and HMRC, prepare any outstanding accounts and confirmation statements, settle late filing penalties where applicable, and arrange any required consents related to bona vacantia assets—helping you achieve a smooth, timely restoration.

Administrative vs Court Restoration
We help you select the correct route and complete all requirements:
- Administrative Restoration: Available where the company was struck off by the Registrar (not voluntarily), typically within a defined time limit, with filings and penalties brought up to date.
- Court Restoration: Used where administrative restoration is not available (e.g., voluntary strike-off or other scenarios). We handle statements, bundles, and subsequent filings.
- Asset Recovery Support: Guidance where assets passed to the Crown as bona vacantia pending restoration.
