Congratulations on registering your company. Fast Reg wishes you all the best in your business endeavours.

Registering your company is only the first step in managing it. Throughout its life span, a company is required to maintain its information and legal status with the CIPC. Failure to do so may have serious consequences for your company and your business activities, as it may result in deregistration, investigation, administrative fine or prosecution.

The Companies Act, 2008 places compliance requirements on all registered entities throughout its life cycle, which includes any changes to the company information, annual return filings (which includes filing of annual financial statements or financial accountability supplements) and deregistration.

Please ensure that the CIPC always has the latest contact details for the directors or the authorised representative so that important information relating to annual returns, director changes and pending deregistration can be transmitted efficiently and effectively to the correct person. For more information about any of the requirements listed below, please direct your enquiry to: info@fastreg.co.za.
