The Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) has announced changes to its system for the filing of annual returns and beneficial ownership information – which introduces mandatory obligations for companies and close corporations for 2024. As of 1 April 2024, it will therefore be mandatory to file the beneficial ownership information before you can submit the yearly returns for a company or close corporation unless you have already submitted the beneficial ownership details.
