Remove an owner, and restore one removed by mistake

Steps

1. 1

   Select the red bin on the person's row

   In UBO Records, find Hessa Butti Al Qemzi, who holds no shares but could appoint the directors. Her right ended on 1 October. Select the red bin at the end of her row. You may need to scroll the table sideways to see it.

   • Select Delete UBO
2. 2

   Enter the date the ownership ended

   The window says she will be ended as of the date below and that the record stays in the history and the change log. In Ownership ended on, enter 1 October 2026. The date starts as today and cannot be earlier than the date her control began.

   • Type Ownership ended on: 2026-10-01
3. 3

   Write the reason

   In Reason for removal say why, in at least 5 characters. The note under it reminds you that removing an owner is a register change that must be filed with the registrar within 15 days.

   Select Remove owner

   Select Remove owner. A message says Owner removed, a filing with the registrar is now due. She leaves UBO Records, and Active UBOs drops to 2.

   Find her under Removed owners

   Scroll down past UBO Records. A card called Removed owners lists her with her percentage, the date the ownership ended, your reason, and your name under Removed by. The text says a removal can be undone until it is filed with the registrar.

   Find the removal in the Change Log

   Select Change Log on the left. The newest line is the removal, with her name, the type of change, your name and a filing deadline. Then select Register to go back.

   Select Restore

   Suppose the removal was a mistake: the new shareholders' agreement kept her right. Go back to Register, scroll to Removed owners and select Restore on her line. The window says she will be put back on the register and screened again, and that the removal's filing is cancelled because it was never filed.

   See what happens when shares are left unaccounted for

   Removing a shareholder is different, because shares must add up. Select the red bin on the row of Huda Ibrahim Al Marri, type a reason, and select Remove owner. The app does not remove her yet. An amber box says that after this removal the remaining owners would hold 50 percent of the direct shareholding, not 100 percent, and asks you to tick a box confirming that this is correct and that the rest is held by people who are not beneficial owners.

   • Select Delete UBO
   • Type Reason for removal: Shares sold to an outside investor
   • Select Remove owner
10. 10

    Select Cancel

    Only tick the box when the shares really have gone to someone who is not a beneficial owner, for example many small investors. When the buyer is a beneficial owner, move the shares first, as in the previous lesson. She is still an owner here, so select Cancel.

    • Select Cancel

    Check she is back

    She is listed in UBO Records again with the status Active, and Active UBOs shows 3. The change log keeps both the removal and the restore, so the history shows exactly what happened.
