INC-22 — Notice of Registered Office

Notify or Change Your Company’s Registered Office With the ROC

A company’s registered office is its official address for all legal communication, and its situation must be on record with the Registrar of Companies. Form INC-22 is used to notify the situation of the registered office at incorporation and to report any subsequent change of address. Correct filing, backed by valid proof of address, keeps the company’s records accurate and ensures it receives official notices without disruption.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Form INC-22 used for?

Form INC-22 is used to notify the Registrar of Companies of the situation of a company’s registered office. It is filed to record the address at incorporation and to report any later change in the situation of the registered office.

When must INC-22 be filed?

INC-22 must generally be filed within thirty days of incorporation where the registered office is not provided at incorporation, and within thirty days of any change in the registered office address, so that the ROC’s records remain accurate and current.

What documents are required for INC-22?

Supporting documents typically include recent proof of the address such as a utility bill, the rent or lease agreement or ownership proof, and a no-objection certificate from the owner where applicable, along with the authorising board resolution.

Is the process different for moving within the same city versus another state?

Yes. A move within the same city or local limits is comparatively straightforward, while shifting the registered office across ROC jurisdictions or to another state requires additional approvals and resolutions before INC-22 can complete the change on record.

Why is the registered office address important?

The registered office is the company’s official address for all statutory and legal correspondence. Keeping it accurate and on record ensures the company receives notices from regulators, courts, and other parties, and avoids the risk of missing important communication.
