BVI entities that missed the 1 Jan 2026 filing deadline may have been struck off and dissolved. We can help with status checks and restoration.

On 1 July 2026, the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) Registry struck off and dissolved entities that failed to meet the Beneficial Ownership and statutory register filing requirements due 1 January 20261.

Uncertain about whether all your required filings were completed? We can conduct a BVI entity status check to help determine whether any action is needed.

If you would like help with reviewing the status of your BVI entities, simply send us a list of entity names and our team will conduct a high-level review to help confirm if:

  • Your entities remain in good standing;
  • Any entities have been struck off or dissolved;
  • Any immediate remedial steps that may be required; and
  • Available options for restoration where an entity has been struck off or dissolved.

For entities struck off or dissolved, we can advise on the restoration process and provide guidance on the necessary steps to return them to good standing.

At the Maples Group, our Registered Office’s dedicated legal and fiduciary professionals actively assist with ongoing regulatory obligations and filing requirements. Our integrated approach helps navigate evolving compliance requirements and minimise the risk of missed filings.
