Dear Sir / Madam, 

Re : Request for Withdrawal of Summons against ACCOUNT_JOB_COMPANY 

We are writing to request for the Inland Revenue Department to respectfully withdraw the above Summons against ACCOUNT_JOB_COMPANY (the “Company”) for [failing to file tax return / employer return / business registration / pay fees etc.]. Our explanation for the failure to file / pay is as follow:

1. Prior to [Year] – we appointed [Firm], [a Certified Public Accountants / a corporate secretariat firm / tax advisor), as our [auditor / company secretary / tax advisor] and have used the Firm’s address, [address], as the registered address of the company for correspondence with the tax office. 

2. The directors did make relevant enquiries on a periodic basis with the Firm on [business registration / tax filings] for the Company in the past few years and was assured by the Firm that everything was taken care of.

3. The directors changed the registered address on [date] and was promptly issued with the summons afterwards. It was only then discovered that the Firm made no filings for the Company since [year] with the [Inland Revenue Department / Tax Office / Company Registry]. The Firm has withheld all business registrations and other filing documents from the Company upon receipt and the directors were not aware that the relevant filings had not been made.
