INC-22 — Notice of Registered Office

Correct filing of Form INC-22 in Goa — the notice of the situation or change of a company's registered office — filed with the ROC within 30 days, with the right address proof, so your registered office is properly recorded.

Overview

INC-22 — Notice of Registered Office, handled end to end.

Form INC-22 notifies the ROC of a company's registered office. It is filed when the office is not declared at incorporation (within 30 days of incorporation), and whenever the office changes within local limits (within 30 days of the change), supported by proof of the address.

The registered office determines the company's jurisdiction and is where official notices are served, so it must be accurately recorded. For shifts beyond local limits or between states, additional steps and approvals apply. We file INC-22 with the correct documents, and handle the wider registered office change where the move is larger.

Frequently asked questions

INC-22 — Notice of Registered Office, answered.

What is Form INC-22?

Form INC-22 is the notice filed with the ROC of the situation of a company's registered office, or of a change in it. It records the official address of the company, supported by proof, and is a key compliance because the registered office determines jurisdiction and where notices are served.

When is INC-22 filed?

INC-22 is filed when a company does not declare its registered office at incorporation, in which case it must be filed within 30 days of incorporation, and whenever the registered office changes within the same local limits, within 30 days of the change. We file it within the deadline.

What documents are needed for INC-22?

The filing typically needs proof of the registered-office address — a recent utility bill, proof of ownership or a registered rent agreement, and a no-objection certificate from the owner where the premises are not owned. We compile the correct documents so the filing is accepted.

Does INC-22 cover shifting the office to another city or state?

INC-22 itself covers notifying the office and changes within local limits, but a shift beyond local limits or to another state needs additional steps — a special resolution and, for inter-state moves, Regional Director approval. We handle these larger shifts through the full registered-office-change process.

Why is the registered office so important?

The registered office fixes the company's ROC jurisdiction and is the address where all official communications and legal notices are served. An inaccurate or unrecorded office can mean missed notices and compliance issues, so it must be correctly filed via INC-22.

What happens if INC-22 is not filed?

Not filing INC-22 when required leaves the company without a properly recorded registered office and attracts penalties, and can affect the validity of notices served. We ensure it is filed on time with the right proof.
