Types of Company Liquidation in Dubai
There are two main types of liquidation under UAE law:
1. Voluntary Liquidation
This happens when the company’s owners or shareholders agree to close the business. Usually, it’s due to:
- Business is no longer profitable
- Internal disagreements
- Change in plans
In this case, all shareholders sign a resolution and hire a certified liquidator to start the process.
2. Compulsory Liquidation
This is a forced closure by court order, usually when:
- The company is unable to pay debts
- The company has violated UAE business laws
- The company has been inactive for a long time
In both cases, it is essential to follow a legal procedure for cancellation to avoid fines or blocklisting.
