Convert a Close Corporation to a Private Company

When you’ve successfully converted your Close Corporation to a Private Company with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC), the next crucial step is to update your registration with the Compensation Fund. Avoid registering twice and maintain the same Compensation Fund registration number throughout the process.

Our streamlined process ensures a seamless transition from a Close Corporation to a Private Company, and we are committed to making this procedure hassle-free for you.

What We Require from You:

• A letter on the company letterhead requesting the change of the company name from a close corporation to a private company. The letter must be signed by a director.

• Recently certified ID/Passport documents of all the directors.

• SARS Tax Clearance Certificate

• CIPC documents:

  • CC registration document CM1

  • COR18.3 Conversion document

  • CIPC Disclosure Certificate
