Updating company details
Before you send us your question
We have a range of resources on this website that might help answer your question. Here are links to just some of the information we have that relates to this topic:
Companies are required to update the companies register with any address changes. Update company address details online for free.
After incorporation a company may decide to amend its constitution or, if the company had no constitution, adopt one.
The companies register contains details of each company director - their full legal name, residential address and date of appointment. As these details change, the changes must also be recorded on the register.
Where a company has made share changes these will be recorded in the company's share register. When the total number of shares is increased or decreased - these changes must be notified to the Registrar of Companies within ten working days.
The address you are trying to enter may not be included in the NZ Post address database (PAF).
An amalgamation is the means of merging the assets and liabilities of two or more amalgamating companies, with one continuing as the amalgamated company, and the other (or others) being removed from the register.
If you couldn't find the answer to your question here, please send your question to the Companies Office team.
We aim to respond within four working hours (8:30am - 5pm - Monday to Friday).
