Affidavit for Closure of LLP
Professional Format Guide for LLP Strike Off Compliance
Introduction
An Affidavit for Closure of LLP is a sworn statement executed by the Designated Partners of a Limited Liability Partnership declaring that the LLP has remained inactive since its incorporation or a specified date and that no business or commercial activities have been carried out in its name.
This affidavit is a mandatory document required while applying for strike off of the LLP from the Register of LLPs maintained by the Registrar of Companies. It accompanies LLP Form 24 and confirms the absence of creditors, liabilities, pending litigation, and statutory dues. The affidavit must be executed on appropriate stamp paper and notarised.
Benefits of Using a Standard Format
Using a professionally drafted affidavit format ensures that all statutory declarations are accurately captured in line with regulatory requirements. A ready-to-use template reduces the risk of omissions or incorrect statements that could delay or lead to rejection of the strike off application.
Standardised formats also enable faster verification by the Registrar and support smooth processing of LLP closure applications.
Relevance to LLP Compliance
Closure of an LLP marks the end of its statutory compliance obligations. Prior to filing for strike off, all annual filings should be completed and outstanding fees paid. The affidavit forms part of a comprehensive closure documentation set along with the Indemnity Bond, Statement of Accounts, Income Tax Return acknowledgements, and Authorisation Letter.
Proper closure documentation is important for partners who may later wish to incorporate a new LLP or company.
