What are common mistakes to avoid while re-registering an incorporated society

Re-registering an incorporated society can be a smooth process if you avoid some common pitfalls. Here are a few key points to keep in mind:

  1. Incomplete Constitution: Ensure your society’s constitution complies with the Incorporated Societies Act 2022.
  2. Missed Deadlines: Societies must re-register before 5 April 2026 to remain on the register.
  3. Lack of Member Approval: Your members need to approve the application and any changes to the constitution, ideally during an annual general meeting.
  4. Incorrect Authority: Make sure the person applying has the proper authority to act on behalf of the society.
  5. Outdated Information: Double-check that all society details are up-to-date before submitting the application.
