Compulsory Liquidation by the Court

The Cyprus Companies’ Law, Cap.113 provides the procedure for the winding-up of a company by the Court.

The most common grounds on which a company may be placed in a compulsory winding-up by the Court are where the company is unable to pay its debts, or where the Court is of the opinion that it is just and equitable that the company should be wound up.

Where an application is about to be or has been filed with the Court for a winding-up order against a company, attention must be given by all interested parties to the actions they must take. Directors of the company, shareholders, and creditors, each shall take precautions and actions in order to safeguard their rights and avoid being found foul of their obligations.

We provide advice at the preliminary stages of a compulsory winding-up, before the filing of the relevant application to the Court, during when the application is under consideration by the Court and after the issuance of the winding-up order.

We accept appointment as liquidators either alone or jointly with others, and as provisional, or permanent ones and have the expert knowledge and necessary experience to carry out the liquidation procedure from A to Z.
