Requirements to Restore your Anguilla Company
An application for the restoration of an Anguilla company must be made within 20 years of the date of the dissolution of the company.
Before restoring a company, the Registrar requires the payment of all fees and penalties that:
- were due from the company at the date of its dissolution.
- would have been payable up to the date of the application for reviving the company as if the company was never dissolved.
Restoration by Registrar / Court
We will apply to the Registrar and the Anguilla Financial Services Commission when the company was dissolved for one of the following reasons:
- the registered agent ceased to act, and a new agent was not appointed
- articles of dissolution were drawn up to dissolve the company
- the company failed to send the Annual Return or to pay the annual government fee
- the company did not commence business within 3 years of the date of the company’s certificate of incorporation
- the company ceased to carry on business or was not in operation
The application to the Registrar to restore the company must be made by a shareholder or director.
To restore your Anguilla company the Registrar must be satisfied that, at the time that the company was dissolved, the company
- was still carrying on business
- had property that had not been disposed of
When the Registrar agrees to the restoration of the company, he will:
- Publish a Legal Notice in the Gazette
- Issue a Certificate of Restoration for the company; and
- Restore the company’s name to the Registry.
Upon the restoration of the company, any property that was vested in the Crown will be returned to the company upon its restoration.
