Moreover, creditors are not paid or the company commits some serious offence – under which a company is considered for liquidation. Liquidation could either be compulsory (sometimes noted as a creditors’ liquidation) or voluntary (sometimes noted as a shareholders’ liquidation, though some voluntary liquidations are controlled by the creditors).

A business liquidation also includes compensation for employees, their visa and work permit cancellation. During this process the owner of the business requires to coordinate with the Department of Naturalization and Residency and the Ministry of Labour. There are various welfare and compulsions the UAE government imposes during the termination of the employees.

Apart from the employees the owner also is obligated to deal with getting subscriptions annulled, accounts with the DEWA and Etisalat or Du to be cancelled, closure dealings with the bank, retrieving your deposits and more. Moreover, the lease contract for the office or warehouse leases has to be honoured, cancellation of licenses and various other legal documents are done with proper application process which requires approvals from government and federal authorities.
