Start your company properly and keep CIPC records up to date — names, directors, members and company details.

- Company Details Amendments — address, name, financial year-end and other details
- Directors/Members Amendments — appointing or removing directors and members

What we need to register your company

After registration
A new company also needs its beneficial ownership details filed with CIPC, a business bank account and, where needed, registration for VAT, PAYE and COIDA. We guide you through each step so your new business is compliant from day one.
Frequently asked questions
Is my company automatically registered for income tax?
Companies registered through CIPC are generally registered for income tax with SARS automatically. Other taxes such as VAT and PAYE need separate registration.
Can you change the directors of my company?
Yes. We handle director and member amendments with CIPC, including the supporting documents.
My company was deregistered — can it be reinstated?
Often, yes. Read how CIPC reinstatement works or contact us for help.
