When you should get advice

You should get advice when:

  • Your company cannot pay HMRC or other creditors

  • You cannot meet your financial obligations 

  • You have received a County Court Judgment (CCJ),  or winding up petition

  • You are under increasing pressure from creditors

  • You have a bounce back loan you cannot repay

  • You want to clear your debts and start afresh

Take action to avoid personal liability

If your business is in financial difficulty, we strongly advise you to take advice from a qualified practitioner as early as possible. The biggest mistake we see businesses make is continuing to trade and ignore the situation. 

We advise you:

  • Don't invest more money into your business

  • Don't take on further debts / accrue additional credit

  • Don't take on new loans or borrowing

  • Don't take dividends 

  • Don't continue to trade and ignore the situation

Benefits of Limited Company Liquidation

FAQs: Closing a Limited Company With Debts

Can I close a limited company if it has debts?

Yes. You can close a limited company with debts, but only through a formal insolvency process such as a Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL). Debts are written off when the company is liquidated, unless you’ve given personal guarantees.

What happens to the debts when a company is liquidated?

Unsecured debts, including suppliers, HMRC, and Bounce Back Loans are written off. Secured lenders may repossess assets, and any personal guarantees remain your responsibility. Do not worry, we take of all creditors and manage the whole process on your behalf to clear debts and protect director interests.

Can HMRC stop me closing my company?

HMRC can block a strike‑off, but they cannot stop a CVL. If you owe VAT, PAYE, or Corporation Tax, HMRC will usually object to a strike‑off and push for liquidation instead.

Can I start a new company after closing one with debts?

Yes. Directors can legally start a new company after liquidation, provided they haven’t acted fraudulently or been disqualified. You must follow the rules on reusing the old company name.

Can I reuse my old company name after liquidation?

Only in limited circumstances. Under Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986, you cannot reuse the same or similar name for 5 years unless you follow strict “phoenix company” rules.

What is the correct way to close an insolvent company?

The proper route is a Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL). A licensed insolvency practitioner handles the process, deals with creditors, sells assets, and closes the company legally.

Will I be personally liable for company debts?

Directors are usually protected by limited liability. You may be personally liable only if:

  • You signed a personal guarantee

  • You traded while insolvent

  • You committed fraud or misconduct

  • You have an overdrawn Director’s Loan Account (DLA)

How long does it take to close a limited company with debts?

A CVL typically takes 2–4 weeks to begin and usual 1-2 months to complete. The company stops trading immediately once the process starts.
 

Will liquidation affect my credit score?

No. Company liquidation does not affect your personal credit score. However, any personal guarantees or unpaid DLA may impact you individually.

Do I need an IP to close a company with debts?

Yes. Insolvent companies must be closed by a licensed insolvency practitioner. Directors cannot liquidate an insolvent company themselves.

How much does it cost to close a limited company with debts

The cost varies depending on the complexity of the situation and the nature of the debts. It typically ranges from £1,500 - £3,999. We offer the lowest cost liquidation and debt clearance service; we'll never be beaten on price. That's our promise.
