    Just resign as a director. There are online forms for that. Then it's HIS problem. The company will probably just get closed down by Companies House.

    They require both directors to sign document for company cancellation. I can`t contact second director about this.

    Yes, but if YOU have resigned, it's no longer YOUR responsibility. It's HIS. And if he doesn't do anything about it, it will get struck off automatically after a certain time. Clear?

    i haven`t signed any document for company removal, and not sure how to do this. Company house site requires authorization code which i don`t have. And company removal document requires both sides to sign it. Also i have outstanding annual report, if i will not send it company removal will be not accepted.
    Can you show me exact link where can i do it please?

    You can request an authorization code via their website and they will post it to the registered office.

    I have requested that code and they sent postal mail to company registration address. I couldn`t get that mail.
