Company or CC Yearend and Registered Address Changes
The CIPC can process various changes, such as the financial yearend date of your company, as well as its registered address. Companies are entitled to one change of financial yearends during any financial year and have to ensure the accuracy of their registered address to avoid penalties. LMS can assist with successfully processing these changes with the CIPC.

Share Capital Amendments
A company’s share capital comprises funds contributed by company shareholders.

Non-profit companies serve public interests and do not earn distributable income. External companies are similar because they do not earn distributable income; however, they are incorporated outside of South African borders. LMS can assist with successful registrations for these entities.

South African legislation states that a company can be registered with or without a company name, in which case your entity’s registration number serves as it’s trading name, until formalized at a later date. LMS can assist with easily registering your business’s official name to protect intellectual property interests.
