What information is required?
The following is needed to register a company with CIPC:
- At least 3 possible company names
- Registered address for the company
- Email address
- Cellphone number
- Copy of ID document for every director
- Director’s cellphone number
- Director’s email address
- Director’s physical address
What to do after the company is registered.
After the company is registered with CIPC, you will receive a company document called the COR14.3. This document must then be used to open a bank account at the bank of your choice. As soon as the company has a bank account, a public officer must be appointed at SARS. The public officer can be anyone of the directors. If the company does not have a registered public officer at SARS, you won’t be able to get an eFiling profile, which is needed to submit taxes and request a tax clearance.
Non profit companies
Non profit companies can apply at SARS for a Section18A certificate, which will exempt them from paying tax on donations received. This will also give donators a tax benefit. They can also apply at the department of social development for a NPO number.
Annual returns
All companies have to submit an annual return to CIPC every year on the anniversary of the company. The annual income then has to be declared to CIPC. If the annual returns are not submitted in time, CIPC will raise penalties and deregister the company.
Please note.
Because there are already thousands of companies registered at CIPC, it may happen that the name you prefer is already in use. When this happens, the name reservation has to be resubmitted to CIPC. Because of this, an additional R50 will be charged for every name reservation submitted.
