Which other changes must I report to the New Zealand Companies Office?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

Changes to directors' names or addresses, the registered office, the address for service, shareholders and the constitution all need to be filed. Most have short deadlines, often 20 working days, so tell us as soon as something changes. We keep the register current as part of your renewal.
