Offshore company strike-off
Administrative strike-off of an offshore entity. Filed through the registered agent; the entity is removed from the register after the statutory waiting period (3-6 months). Note: strike-off is reversible for 5-7 years and is not bank-acceptable for a clean exit narrative. Use Voluntary Liquidation if you need a definitive wind-up.

Operator-grade use case
The low-cost way to retire a dormant offshore entity. Reach for it when a company has no assets, no liabilities, and no further use, and you simply want to stop paying the annual registered-agent and government fees. The registered agent files for administrative removal and the registrar strikes the entity after the statutory waiting period, typically 3 to 6 months depending on the jurisdiction.
Most appropriate for operators winding down a shelf company, an abandoned holding vehicle, or a structure that never went operational, where nobody downstream will ever ask for proof of a clean exit. It is filed in any jurisdiction we work in, at Tier 0 KYC, with no source-of-funds documentation required.
Less ideal for anyone who needs a definitive, bank-grade exit. Strike-off is reversible for 5 to 7 years and is not accepted as evidence of a clean wind-up by banks, auditors, or counterparties. If you are closing a fund-adjacent SPV, a Cayman exempted company, or any entity where you may later need audit-trail proof of dissolution, use Voluntary Liquidation (dissolution-liquidation) instead.

Common questions
- What is administrative strike-off?
- It is the registrar removing your entity from the register, filed through your registered agent. The entity is struck after the statutory waiting period, typically 3 to 6 months depending on the jurisdiction. It is the cheapest way to retire a dormant company with no assets or liabilities.
- Is strike-off the same as a clean wind-up?
- No. Strike-off is reversible for 5 to 7 years and is not bank-acceptable as proof of a definitive exit. If a bank, auditor, or counterparty may later ask for audit-trail evidence that the company was wound up, use Voluntary Liquidation at $2,499 instead. We will tell you which path fits your situation.
- How do I pay, and what does it cost?
- The $999 all-in price is settled in BTC, Lightning, or USDT via BitSettle. The registered-agent filing is included. Any outstanding government fees, penalties, or registered-agent arrears the registrar requires before striking the entity are separate and are your responsibility.
- Does strike-off settle my tax obligations?
- No. Striking an entity from a register does not close out tax positions. Any final return or filing for the entity is your responsibility, and US persons should plan with a US Enrolled Agent. General information, not tax advice; consult a qualified professional regarding your situation.
