Common questions
How fast can I get my documents?
Usually the same working day, or the next, once we have your company details. It's one of our quickest services.
Which documents will I receive?
Your registration certificate (CoR 14.3), Memorandum of Incorporation (CoR 15.1) and a company disclosure showing current directors and status. Tell us if you need anything specific.
I've lost all my paperwork — is that a problem?
Not at all. The documents live on the CIPC register, so we can retrieve fresh copies even if you've lost every original.
Do the documents work for opening a bank account?
Yes. These are the official CIPC documents banks ask for. If your bank needs anything extra, we'll help you get it.
Can you retrieve documents for a company I just bought?
Yes, provided you're authorised to act for the company. We can also update directors and address details so the record reflects the new ownership.
What if my company has outstanding annual returns?
We'll flag it when we check your standing. We can file any outstanding returns at the same time so your documents reflect a compliant company.
