Change of Directors Registration Services
We assist with registering director appointments, resignations and changes to authorised signatories with the Department of Business Development (DBD).
Change of Directors Registration Services
If a company director wishes to resign from the position, the resignation letter is submitted to the company. The resignation takes effect from the date the resignation letter reaches the company, and no meeting resolution is required. To appoint a new director as a replacement, to remove a director, or to change any of the company’s authorised signatories, a shareholders’ meeting or a board of directors’ meeting (depending on the case) must be held to pass a resolution on that matter.
Director changes should follow the company’s Articles of Association and applicable registration requirements. Our team can help prepare the supporting documents and coordinate the filing process.
Changing Directors' Authority
Changes to directors’ authority are divided into 2 categories:
1. Changing directors’ authority because a former director has left office and a new director has been appointed, which requires changing the authority of the directors who act on behalf of the company
2. Amending directors’ authority to make management more convenient, for example, when a director who previously held authority is unavailable to sign documents because of a heavy schedule, and a new director is therefore appointed to hold authority instead
Amendments to directors’ authority must be made only by a resolution of a shareholders’ meeting. However, if the company has a provision allowing a meeting of the board of directors to pass a resolution amending directors’ authority, a resolution of the board of directors’ meeting may then be used.
Information Needed to Register a Change of Directors or Directors' Authority
- Name of the former director (the person leaving the director position)
- Name, address, age, nationality and ID card number of the director taking up the new position
- The newly amended directors’ authority
