Complete Protection & Relief From HMRC

Once you appoint us, we will initiate a Creditors Voluntary Liquidation (CVL), meaning HMRC will no longer pursue you and the debts will be liquidated.

There are specific circumstances in which they may pursue you, however we will manage the situation to ensure you are protected from liability.

Lowest Price Guarantee 

To liquidate a UK business and clear its outstanding debts, you must appoint a qualified insolvency practitioner (IP).

We offer the lowest cost liquidation service, starting from £1,299. We will never be beaten on price.

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

FAQs: Closing a limited company with debts to HMRC

Will HMRC pursue me personally?

No, once you appoint an insolvency practitioner, such as ourselves, and we initiate a Creditors Voluntary Liquidation(CVL), HMRC will no longer pursue you and we will manage all correspondence with them.

There are some specific circumstances in which they may pursue you, however we will advise you on this and ensure we minimise any personal liability.

How much does it cost?

In the vast majority of our client cases, liquidation (CVL) costs between £1,999 - £2,999 with absolutely no hidden costs or additional fees.

How long does the liquidation process typically take?

The initial appointment of a liquidator can usually be completed within days. The actual realisation of assets and final closure of the company's affairs can be complete within 1 month, depending on the complexity of the business structure and its assets. LCL specialise in fast liquidation and are able to achieve this for our clients in most cases.

Can I start a new business after liquidating my limited company?

Yes, directors are generally free to start new ventures. However, you must comply with strict regulations regarding the reuse of the insolvent company's name and ensure that any new business is established legally and transparently. We will guide you through this process.

Is liquidating a limited company lawful?

Yes, liquidating a limited company is lawful in the UK when it is done through one of the formal procedures set out in the Insolvency Act 1986 and overseen by a licensed insolvency practitioner such as LCL. The law provides several legitimate routes depending on whether the company is solvent or insolvent.

What happens to my Bounce Back Loan in liquidation?

In most cases, Bounce Back Loans are treated as unsecured company debts and are written off when the company is liquidated, unless you have given a personal guarantee or committed fraud.

I’m not sure if my company needs to be liquidated — what should I do?

You’re not expected to know the answer straight away — most directors we speak to are unsure at this stage. The important thing is to understand your position clearly before making any decisions. In some cases, liquidation is the right option. In others, there may be alternatives.

A short, confidential conversation can help you understand where you stand and what your next steps should be. There’s no obligation, and no pressure to proceed.

Will I lose everything if I liquidate my company?

Not necessarily. Liquidation is a structured process designed to deal with company debts in an orderly way. For many directors, it provides a clear way to draw a line under the business and move forward.

What happens next depends on your specific circumstances, but many directors go on to start new businesses or continue working without issue.
