PDAL Luxembourg: act before administrative dissolution

The ad­min­is­tra­tive dis­so­lu­tion without liq­ui­da­tion pro­ce­dure (PDAL) targets Lux­em­bourg com­pa­nies that no longer meet their basic obli­ga­tions. It is better to reg­u­larise before the de­ci­sion than to repair af­ter­wards.

In brief : PDAL in Lux­em­bourg: who is tar­get­ed, time­line, con­se­quences and ways to bring a company back into com­pli­ance before ad­min­is­tra­tive dis­so­lu­tion.

Who is concerned

Com­mer­cial com­pa­nies without an ef­fec­tive reg­is­tered office, that have not filed annual ac­counts for a long time, or whose reg­istry in­for­ma­tion is out­dat­ed may fall within the pro­ce­dure. A dormant company that is com­pli­ant is not con­cerned for that reason alone.

How it works, in plain terms

The pro­ce­dure is started by the com­pe­tent au­thor­i­ty, with a pub­li­ca­tion and a period to react. During that period the company can reg­u­larise its sit­u­a­tion. Exact dead­lines and cri­te­ria are set by law and must be checked against each company's file at the rel­e­vant date.

What STYX Corporate Services can do

We review the reg­istry file, list the gaps, build a timetable and co­or­di­nate the pro­fes­sion­als needed: notary, ap­proved statu­to­ry auditor, ac­coun­tant, domi­cil­i­a­tion agent. Where the cor­po­rate object and the sit­u­a­tion allow, we can also accept a di­rec­tor­ship.

STYX Cor­po­rate Ser­vices holds company man­dates and co­or­di­nates for­mal­i­ties. The busi­ness re­la­tion­ship entry audit is a pre­lim­i­nary di­ag­no­sis, not a statu­to­ry audit of the ac­counts. It does not keep books, does not prepare ac­counts, and pro­vides no statu­to­ry audit, domi­cil­i­a­tion, or legal or tax advice, and holds no client funds. When a reg­u­lat­ed en­gage­ment is needed, it refers you to the com­pe­tent pro­fes­sion­al: notary, ap­proved statu­to­ry auditor, ac­coun­tant, domi­cil­i­a­tion agent.
