Overview    

CIPC compliance has become increasingly complex, with heightened scrutiny around Beneficial Ownership disclosures, Annual Returns, and company deregistration. Non-compliance can result in penalties, deregistration, and reputational risk for both companies and practitioners.

This practical masterclass is designed to guide professionals through the real-world application of CIPC requirements, focusing on common problem areas, frequent errors, and step-by-step compliance processes. The session will equip attendees with the confidence to manage CIPC submissions accurately and efficiently.
