About this service
Updating your company's registered details
When your company changes its registered address, business activity, financial year end or name, ACRA needs to be told through the right process.
Some changes only need a directors' resolution, while others, such as a change of name, need shareholders to pass a special resolution first.

Questions
Company Detail Changes: common questions.
Can I change the company name at any time?
Yes, provided the new name is approved and shareholders pass a special resolution.
Does a change of address need shareholder approval?
Usually no. It is generally a directors' decision, lodged with ACRA.
Can I change my financial year end?
Yes, within the limits set by ACRA. It also affects your filing and tax timelines, so it is worth planning.
