Frequently Asked Questions on Company Liquidation in UAE

Company liquidation in the UAE is the legal process of closing a business and dissolving its operations. This involves settling debts, canceling licenses, and removing the company from the official trade register.

There are two main types:

  • Voluntary liquidation – When company owners decide to close the business due to financial or strategic reasons.

  • Compulsory liquidation – When the court orders a company to close due to insolvency, legal violations, or failure to meet obligations.

 

The company liquidation process typically takes 2 to 6 months, depending on the business structure, the complexity of financial obligations, and the regulatory approvals required.

The key steps include:

  1. Board resolution approving the liquidation.

  2. Appointment of a liquidator (for LLCs and other entities).

  3. Settling debts and liabilities with creditors and suppliers.

  4. Canceling business licenses and visas (employees and owners).

  5. Submitting final audit reports and obtaining clearance certificates.

  6. Officially deregistering the company with authorities.

The cost varies depending on company size, outstanding liabilities, and legal requirements. Expenses may include:

  • Liquidator fees (starting from AED 5,000)

  • License cancellation fees (varies by jurisdiction)

  • Visa and labor card cancellation fees

  • Debt settlement costs (if applicable)

Yes, but you must settle all outstanding debts with banks, suppliers, and government entities before completing the liquidation process. If the company is insolvent, a court-appointed liquidator will oversee debt repayment.

Failure to liquidate properly can lead to:

  • Fines and penalties from authorities.

  • Legal action against company owners and shareholders.

  • Visa bans or travel restrictions for unpaid debts.
    Proper liquidation ensures a clean financial and legal exit from the UAE.
