Company Reinstatement (Application to ASIC)

Do you need to reinstate a company that has been deregistered? We can organise the documents for you from $440. Company reinstatement means that the entity is revived as if it had never been deregistered, and all the directors and shareholders resume their rights and responsibilities as they were at the time of deregistration. Reinstatement documents include ASIC Form 581 Application for ASIC Reinstatement.

How to reinstate a deregistered company?

There are two ways to reinstate a deregistered company. The first way is to apply to ASIC using a Form 581 Application for ASIC Reinstatement. This is the simplest way if the company was voluntarily deregistered, or ASIC has deregistered the company for non-payment of the annual fees. The applicant will need to provide evidence of the following:

The company was still carrying on business when it was deregistered
There were legal proceedings in existence at the time of deregistration, or the company has outstanding liabilities.
There was more than $1,000 of assets in the company at the time of deregistration.
There was a procedural error that caused the deregistration.
Not every shareholder agreed to voluntarily deregister the company.

Before ASIC will re-instate the company, all outstanding fees must be paid. This includes any fees owed at the time of deregistration, and any annual review fees for the period that the company was deregistered. If the application to ASIC is successful, then the company will be reinstated with all the pre-existing directors and shareholders as if it had never been deregistered.

The second way is to apply to the court for an order to reinstate the company. If your application to ASIC to re-instate the company is rejected, then you can apply to a court to have the company reinstated. You can also do this if you can’t meet the requirements for an application to ASIC for reinstatement, or the company has been formally wound up.
