There is no fee required for this transaction. If the company is unable to resolve the matter within the 2 months, the striking off application will lapse. The company will have to submit a fresh striking off application if it still wishes to be struck off the register. Any interested person who suspects that a company (i.e. debtor) intends to apply for striking off may lodge a Notice of Intention to Lodge Objection to Future Striking Off Application?via www.bizfile.gov.sg. The fee payable is $10 and the objection will be valid for one year. If the company submits an application for striking off, ACRA will notify the objector via email and he can then submit an online objection to the striking off. |
