Companies House Striking Off Objection Form

Companies House Striking Off Objection Form

When a company applies to be struck off the register at Companies House, creditors, shareholders, and other interested parties have the right to object. This Companies House Striking Off Objection Form streamlines the entire objection process, ensuring you submit all required information to halt an inappropriate striking off application.

Why Use This Template?

Objecting to a company being struck off is a time-sensitive legal process. Missing the objection window or failing to provide sufficient grounds can result in the company being dissolved, potentially leaving creditors without recourse and affecting ongoing legal proceedings.

This template is designed for:

• Creditors seeking to recover outstanding debts before dissolution
• Shareholders and directors protecting their interests in the company
• Legal professionals representing clients in company disputes
• Employees with unpaid wages or pension claims
• Landlords and suppliers with outstanding contractual obligations
• Parties involved in litigation against the company

What Makes This Template Essential?

Built specifically for UK regulatory requirements, this form captures all the critical information Companies House needs to consider your objection, including:

• Detailed objector information and standing to object
• Company identification and dissolution notice details
• Comprehensive grounds for objection with supporting evidence
• Outstanding debt and creditor claims documentation
• Details of ongoing or pending legal proceedings
• Employee claims and contractual obligations
• Restoration grounds and proposed remedies

The form uses conditional logic to adapt based on your specific objection type—whether you're a creditor claiming outstanding debts, involved in legal proceedings, or have other grounds for preventing dissolution. This ensures you only complete relevant sections while capturing all necessary detail.

How Paperform Makes This Work

With Paperform's document-style editor, this objection form provides a professional, official appearance appropriate for submission to Companies House. The form's conditional fields ensure objectors provide the right level of detail for their specific circumstances, while file upload fields let you attach supporting documentation, invoices, contracts, and correspondence directly.

Once submitted, you can use Stepper to automate the workflow—automatically generating PDF summaries for your legal team, sending copies to Companies House, triggering calendar reminders for follow-up actions, and keeping your CRM updated on the objection status.

For legal practices and insolvency practitioners handling multiple objections, this template can be customised and deployed across cases, ensuring consistent, thorough objections every time. With Paperform's SOC 2 Type II compliance and secure data handling, sensitive creditor and legal information remains protected throughout the process.

Whether you're a solicitor acting for multiple creditors, an individual creditor protecting your interests, or a company stakeholder preventing improper dissolution, this template ensures your objection is comprehensive, timely, and properly documented.
