Company Amendments Benoni: Address & Director Changes with CIPC

Whenever your company's registered address changes, or a director is appointed or resigns, this needs to be formally lodged with CIPC. Your company's official records, the ones banks, SARS, and tender boards check, are only as accurate as your last CIPC filing, not your actual current situation.

We lodge these amendments correctly and promptly, so your CIPC records match reality.

Company amendments are R250 per filing.

Why Outdated CIPC Records Are a Real Risk, Not Just Admin

A director who resigned six months ago but was never formally removed from CIPC is, as far as the law is concerned, still a director, with the legal responsibilities that come with it. That's not a minor paperwork gap; it's a real liability exposure for someone who may have already moved on from the business entirely.

An outdated registered address can also mean official CIPC or SARS correspondence goes to the wrong place, including compliance notices you'd want to know about before they become a problem.

What's Covered Under This Service

Address Amendments Updating your company's registered office address with CIPC.
Director Appointments Formally adding a new director to your company's CIPC record.
Director Resignations Formally removing a director who has resigned or been removed.

This service covers address and director changes specifically. If you need a share transfer or share certificate reissued, that's handled separately. See Share Certificates. If your company needs its annual compliance filing instead, that's the CIPC Annual Return, a different requirement entirely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I legally need to update CIPC when a director resigns?
Yes. Until the resignation is formally lodged with CIPC, that person remains a director of record, with the legal responsibilities that come with the role.
How long does a CIPC company amendment take to process?
This depends on CIPC's own processing times and the completeness of documentation provided, but we submit correctly the first time to avoid unnecessary delays or rejections.
Can I update my company's address and director details at the same time?
Yes, these can generally be lodged together if both are changing, which is often more efficient than filing separately.
Is this the same as my CIPC Annual Return?
No. The Annual Return is a yearly compliance filing confirming your company is still active. Company amendments are separate, one-off changes to your director or address details, filed whenever those specific details change.
