What happens upon completion of liquidation?

On completion of liquidation, the company is dissolved and removed from the Companies House register. This marks the end of the company as a separate legal entity—the affairs have been wound up, assets realized, liabilities settled, and there is no ongoing business or legal existence. The other scenarios describe situations that don’t happen once liquidation wraps up: continuing to trade under supervision would occur only if the company remained under an ongoing insolvency regime, which isn’t the case after dissolution; re-registering as a new entity isn’t a standard end-state of liquidation; and emergency administration refers to an earlier, different phase of insolvency.
