Companies House Strike-Off Risk Checker

Use four entered company facts to flag issues for review before voluntary strike-off; this is Obnexo triage, not a Companies House score.

The checker does not verify the public register, establish statutory eligibility, or predict Companies House enforcement.

Companies House Strike-Off Risk Checker

Use four entered company facts to flag issues for review before voluntary strike-off; this is Obnexo triage, not a Companies House score.

Does the company still have liabilities?
Has the company stopped trading?
Are filing obligations up to date?
Are staff, payroll, or PAYE obligations still active?

What this operational triage checks

The result counts answers about liabilities, trading, payroll and overdue filings. More flagged answers produce a higher concern band.

The band is an Obnexo workflow prompt based only on those answers. It is not an official risk category or a probability of strike-off.

Rule summary

What needs checking before voluntary strike-off

Companies House guidance sets conditions beyond these four questions, including the three-month period without trading or selling stock, recent name changes, liquidation and creditor arrangements.

Companies must also notify affected parties, including creditors and employees, and deal with remaining tax, payroll and filing duties. Check the full current guidance before applying.

Worked examples

How the result behaves in practice

No issue flagged by the entered answers

The company has stopped trading, has no live payroll or liabilities, and filings are up to date.

The lower Obnexo triage band does not confirm statutory eligibility or check how long trading has stopped.

Several issues need review

The company reports liabilities, continuing activity and overdue filings.

The higher Obnexo triage band flags work to investigate; it does not predict a Companies House decision.

Turn the result into an action plan

Check Companies House voluntary strike-off eligibility and the live register before deciding on an application.

Review creditor, employee, tax and filing responsibilities with appropriate professional advice where needed.

Use the trusted company compliance calendar as a separate workflow checklist, not as a strike-off eligibility test.
