COMPANY SECRETARY SERVICES

A qualified company secretary for your Sri Lankan company — compliance, filings and statutory records handled for you.

Appoint eSecretary

Every Sri Lankan company must have a company secretary

Under the Companies Act No. 7 of 2007, every company incorporated in Sri Lanka is required to have a company secretary. The secretary is responsible for keeping the company compliant with the Registrar of Companies (ROC) — filing annual returns, maintaining statutory registers, recording minutes and lodging the correct forms whenever directors, shareholders, shares or the registered office change.

Missing a filing is not a small oversight: the company and every officer in default can be fined, and continued default can lead to the company being struck off the register. Appointing a professional secretary means these obligations are tracked and filed on time, so directors can focus on running the business.
