Share Certificates Benoni: Keeping Your Share Register Legally Correct

Under the Companies Act, every company is required to maintain a share register, and each shareholder is entitled to a valid share certificate proving their ownership. This isn't just paperwork, it's the legal evidence of who owns your company, and it matters the moment there's a dispute, a sale, a new investor, or a bank or buyer doing due diligence.

We prepare tailored share certificates and keep your share register accurate, from R100 per certificate.

Share Certificate Benoni - shareholder documentation

✓ Legally correct, ready when you need proof of ownership

Share Certificate vs. Beneficial Ownership Declaration, Related but Different

These two are closely connected, but they serve different purposes, and an outdated share register can directly cause an inaccurate beneficial ownership filing.

Share Certificate Your company's own internal legal record of who holds shares, not filed with CIPC, but the underlying proof of ownership everything else relies on.

Beneficial Ownership Declaration A CIPC filing disclosing the natural persons who ultimately own or control the company, based on what your share register actually shows. See Beneficial Ownership Declaration →

If your share register is out of date, whatever you declare to CIPC as your beneficial ownership may be wrong too. Keeping the share register current is the foundation the rest of your compliance sits on.

When You Need a New or Updated Share Certificate

✓When your company is first formed and initial shares are issued

✓When existing shares are sold or transferred between shareholders

✓When a certificate is lost, damaged, or needs to be reissued
