Common questions

When is my CIPC annual return due?

Within 30 business days of the anniversary of your incorporation date, every year, whether the company traded or not. Close corporations get a wider window: the anniversary month of registration and the month after it.

What happens if I do not file?

In year one your entity is flagged non-compliant on the CIPC register, which is usually where a tender or a bank application falls over. With returns outstanding for two successive years CIPC may refer the company for deregistration, and once that is final the company ceases to exist in law.

What is beneficial ownership, and why does it block my return?

Since 1 July 2024 CIPC will not accept an annual return until your beneficial ownership register is current. The system blocks the submission and your deadline keeps running while you are blocked. For most small companies the beneficial owners are simply the shareholders, but the declaration still has to be lodged.

I have years of outstanding tax returns. Is that a problem?

It is common and it is fixable. SARS charges an administrative penalty for every month a return stays outstanding, so the sooner it is filed the smaller it gets. We file the outstanding years first, then deal with the penalties, which can often be reduced once you are compliant again.
