Companies House announced on 1 September 2026 that, from 1 December 2026, objections to a limited company being struck off the register will need to be submitted through its Make an objection online service. According to the agency, it will no longer accept objections by email after that date.

Companies House said the change would make submitting objections easier, quicker and more secure, and described it as part of its work to digitally transform its services.

To use the online service, users will need to create a Companies House account, provide the company name and number of the company being struck off, and upload supporting documents. The agency said the process should take around 5 minutes.
