Quite often, organizations engaged in entrepreneurial activities need to change the director, change the founders, change the address of the company, and more. Depending on the changes made, it is required to re-register the legal entity or register the changes and additions to the constituent documents of the legal entity (without re-registration).
In accordance with the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, a legal entity is subject to re-registration in the following cases:
- reducing the size of the authorized capital;
- name changes;
- changing members.
In all other cases, such as a change of location of a legal entity or the head of an organization, an increase in the authorized capital, a change of address, it is required to register the changes and additions made to the constituent documents.
The main difference between re-registration and amendments to the constituent documents is the fee for the re-registration procedure, the cost of which is established by the Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan “On taxes and other obligatory payments to the budget (Tax Code)”, as well as liability for untimely re-registration of a legal entity. Unlike re-registration, no fee is charged for registration of amendments and additions to constituent documents. When re-registering and making changes to the constituent documents, the entire list of documents is prepared by our team of professional lawyers with extensive experience in registration and re-registration of organizations.
