PRH says that this form is the only non-public attachment in the filingPRH, so the contact information should be kept separate from the documents submitted for registration
PRH.
The filing is the final stage of the demerger process and is free of charge. The dissolved company’s board and managing director must prepare financial statements and a management report for the period not yet covered by financial statements presented to the general meeting. The Limited Liability Companies Act requires preparation as soon as possible after implementation of the demerger.
Where the company must have an auditor under the law or its articles of association, the final accounts must go to the auditors, who have one month to issue their report. The board must then convene the shareholders without delay to approve the final accounts. PRH’s filing deadline is two months after shareholder approval, so the relevant starting point is approval of the final accountsPRH.
A board member or the managing director signs the notification. A procuration alone does not entitle its holder to sign. An authorised representative may file instead: PRH requires a copy of a specified power of attorney or the original of an open power of attorney.
The final accounts and any power of attorney are combined into one PDF for the electronic notification. The personal-data form remains a separate attachment. PRH warns against including personal identity codes, home addresses or confidential information, such as health information or trade secrets, in the other documents.
The notification is submitted through PRH’s online form for final accounts following a merger or demerger. Paper notifications have not been available for this filing since 1 January 2026.PRH Preparing the public PDF and the separate contact-details form accordingly keeps the submission aligned with the filing instructions.
The legal basis is the Limited Liability Companies Act, Chapter 17, section 17 and Chapter 8, section 10, together with PRH’s final-account filing instructions.
File the approved demerger final accounts within two months and put contact details only on the separate personal-data form.
