# Remove stakeholder

> Remove a person or business stakeholder from an underwriting application by their unique ID.

### Remove stakeholder

Use `removePersonStakeholderInput` or `removeBusinessStakeholderInput` within the [`UnderwritingApplicationStakeholderInput`](/underwriting/reference/graphql/types/underwritingapplicationstakeholderinput) to remove a stakeholder from the application.

You only need to provide the stakeholder's `id` to remove them.

  **Scenario**

  During the application process, Ben realizes that a business partner he had
  initially listed as a stakeholder is no longer involved with the keyboard
  company. He removes this stakeholder by ID before submitting the application
  for review.
</Callout>

<Danger>
  Removing required stakeholders (such as owners or control persons) may cause validation to fail
  when you submit the application. Ensure you maintain all required stakeholder roles.
