How do you change your Company Name in South Africa?
In order to change an existing company name, or to add a name to a company that is trading with its registration number, a name must first be reserved. Once a name reservation has been approved, the company must apply for a change to its memorandum of incorporation (MoI).
Can a Director be removed without his or her consent?
Removal of a company director without his consent or without his co-operation must be done following the provisions of the Companies Act, 2008 (“the Act”). These provisions apply to anyone that holds a position of “director” in a company, whether that position is held formally or informally.
On what grounds can a Director be removed?
The removal of a limited company director may arise for any number of reasons, such as voluntary resignation or retirement, illness or death, bankruptcy, disqualification by the Court, or a breach of service contract. The reason for a director’s removal will dictate which procedure the company should follow.
Can a Memorandum of Incorporation of a Company be amended?
At any time after a Company has filed its Memorandum of Incorporation, and subsequently filed one or more alterations or amendments to it, the Company may file a consolidated revision of its Memorandum of Incorporation, as so altered or amended.
