Restoration of Company in Hong Kong – Administrative Restoration

The administrative restoration procedure is a simple and easy way to restore a company that has been struck out by the Registrar of Companies. By administrative restoration, there is no need to go to court.  The new procedure is not applicable to a company which was dissolved by way of de-registration or winding up.

Common reasons for restoring a company to the register using the administrative restoration procedure include:

  • that the company was still carrying on business or was in operation at the time that the Registrar struck off the company, and
  • the company still owned property when it was struck off and dissolved, which has now vested as bona vacantia

  Limitations of Administrative Restoration Procedures

  • the procedure is not applicable to a company which was dissolved by way of de-registration or winding up

  • the application may be made only by a former director, former shareholder or creditor of the company by filing an application form within the period of twenty years from the date of dissolution of the company

  •  the company was still carrying on business or was in operation at the time that the Registrar struck off the company

  Effect of the restoration

On administrative restoration, the company is deemed to have continued in existence as if it had not been dissolved or struck off.  The company will have to bring its records up to date and pay any penalties that were outstanding at the date of dissolution as a condition to the restoration.
