Company Liquidation Support in the UAE
Closing a UAE company is not simply walking away, it requires settling liabilities, final accounts, a liquidator's report, clearing tax obligations and formal deregistration. Done wrong, it leaves penalties and liabilities attached to owners. Ledger Wise supports the accounting and compliance side of liquidation, preparing the financials, final filings and documentation so your company is wound up cleanly and properly closed.

Questions
Company liquidation, answered.
- It involves settling the company's liabilities, preparing final accounts and a liquidator's report, clearing VAT and corporate tax obligations including deregistration, and formally cancelling the licence and registrations.
- Letting a licence lapse does not close the company properly. Obligations, including tax filing and registration, can remain, and penalties can accrue against the entity and its owners. Formal liquidation ends them.
- Yes. Both VAT and corporate tax registrations must be formally cancelled with the FTA, with final returns filed, as part of closing the company. We handle this alongside the liquidation.
- It is a formal report, prepared in the liquidation process, confirming the company's affairs have been wound up. We prepare the accounting that supports it.
