Can I replace the company secretary or switch to another provider after incorporation?

Yes, even after incorporation, a new company secretary can be appointed or replaced following the procedure in the constitution, and the change is reported to ACRA. Transferring from another service provider is also possible.

It is best to appoint the new company secretary before the existing company secretary resigns so that there is no gap. When switching providers, all records, including statutory registers, minutes and the register of registrable controllers, must be handed over as well.

• When transferring from another provider to Lee Kim Alliance: after client due diligence, we obtain the existing company secretary's resignation letter and the company records, then prepare the appointment resolution and file with ACRA.

Lee Kim Alliance provides a company secretary service.
