259: Documents to state company in liquidation

You could also call this:

"Company documents must show when a company is being closed down"

When a company is in liquidation, there's a special rule about its documents. If you're the liquidator (the person in charge of closing down the company), you need to be careful about any documents you create or sign for the company. You must clearly show on these documents that the company is in liquidation. This means you need to write it in a place where people can easily see it. This rule applies to all documents you make, sign, or send out for the company while you're the liquidator.
