Company Secretarial

Director & Secretary Changes

Appointing a new director, accepting a resignation, or updating someone's details? Officer changes must be filed with the CRO within statutory deadlines — we handle the paperwork correctly and on time.

Director & Secretary Changes

Any change to who serves as a company's director or secretary — an appointment, a resignation, or a change to their name or address — must be notified to the CRO, typically within 14 days of the change taking effect.

We prepare the correct forms, confirm the company still meets its minimum officer requirements after the change, and file everything directly.

What's Included

  • Preparation and CRO filing of officer appointments and resignations
  • Updates to a director or secretary's registered particulars
  • A check that your company still meets minimum director/secretary requirements
  • Confirmation once the CRO has processed the change
