Annual Compliance
Annual Compliance services managed seamlessly by our expert team.
Every company must meet a fixed set of yearly obligations with the Registrar, the tax department and its own shareholders. Missing them leads to heavy late fees and can put directors at risk. CASYST runs your annual compliance calendar from accounts to filings.
What is Annual Compliance?
Annual compliance covers the recurring legal requirements of a company: maintaining accounts, holding board and general meetings, filing financial statements and annual returns with the Registrar, filing income tax returns and updating statutory registers.
The exact list depends on the company type and size, and deadlines are tied to the financial year and the annual general meeting, so a calendar is the safest way to stay on track.
