Re-registering an incorporated society is a crucial process to ensure compliance with the Incorporated Societies Act 2022.
Here’s a brief guide to help you navigate this process smoothly:
Understand the Deadline: All incorporated societies must reregister under the new Act by 5 April 2026 to continue operating. It is essential to start the process early to avoid last-minute complications.
Prepare Your Society: Before applying, ensure your society’s constitution it complies with the requirements of the 2022 Act. This may involve revising your existing constitution and getting approval from your members, typically at an Annual General Meeting (AGM).
Gather Required Information:
You’ll need the following details to complete your application
- A physical address for the society
- The balance date for financial reporting
- Names and physical addresses of all proposed officers – a minimum of three is required
- Confirmation of at least 10 members
