Registered Office Change
Last updated: August 2026 · Reviewed by the Ravel Corporate Advisors team
Moving your registered office — within the same city, to another city, or to another state — needs the right resolutions and ROC filings. We manage the whole change so your records stay valid.
Key takeaways
- Within the same city: board resolution + Form INC-22.
- Outside the city / to another ROC: special resolution + INC-22.
- To another state: additional approval and INC-23 / INC-28.
- Filed within the prescribed time with fresh address proof.
