Denregistrament

Denregistrament is a term used in certain legal systems to denote the formal removal of an entry from an official registry. It is the administrative act by which an entity or asset is no longer recognized as active within the registry, often following dissolution, inactivity, failure to meet statutory requirements, or an administrative decision. The concept applies across contexts such as corporate registries, vehicle or asset registries, professional licensing boards, electoral rolls, and land or title registries.

The scope of denregistrament includes both natural persons and legal entities, as well as tangible assets or formal statuses. In practice, deregistration may occur when a company dissolves, a vehicle is permanently withdrawn from the road, a professional license is surrendered, a person leaves a jurisdiction or dies, or when a domain, title, or rights record is closed. The specific grounds and procedures are defined by the relevant registry and governing law, which may require evidence of cessation of activity, settlement of obligations, or compliance with final administrative steps.

Process and effects Typically, a denregistrament starts with a request or initiation by the party concerned or by the registry itself. The registry reviews eligibility, may publish notices to inform third parties, and allows objections or appeals where applicable. Once completed, the registry updates the record to reflect deregistration and issues a confirmation or certificate of deregistration. Consequences often include loss of legal standing, eligibility to exercise rights tied to the registry, and the need to reapply or re-register if activity resumes or conditions change.
