Does your company’s registered office comply with ASIC requirements?
The Registered Office is the address which is registered with ASIC as the official address of a company, an association or any other legal entity. Generally it will form part of the public record. It does not have to be where the organisation conducts its business and it is not unusual for accountants or agents to provide registered office services.
What are the requirements of a registered office?
The registered office of a company must be open:
- for such hours (being not fewer than 3) between 9 am and 5 pm on each business day; or
- each business day from at least 10 am to 12 noon and from at least 2 pm to 4 pm;
A representative of the company must be present at all times when the office is open.
If your registered office does not comply, then ARW can offer this service on your behalf for an annual fee of $330.
