I inquired more on your question from a colleague and he said you have to furnish to apply and seek leave to open a temporary file. Then once they open, you can now apply for CTC. If you don't have the documents to open the file, then you may have to register a new business name.

barrydee:


Thanks dear & I must say you really know your oníon.
Apart from the old BN document, what other documents are required for them to open a temporary file?
I also heard I have to pay my annual returns since the year the company was incorporated till date + penalty which is N3,500 per annum. Would this payment be made before or after the temporary file is created.
I intend to apply for CHANGE OF DIRECTORS. Thanks .

elyonchee:
wait change of directors is only for a registered company. What you intend to do is change of proprietor and not directors. Like I stated in my previous quote, I thought you were changing directors. Yes you have to pay annual returns. When was the business name registered. Note business name is different from company.
Let me check the regulations for requirements to change proprietor.

barrydee:


Ok it's change of proprietors. It was incorporated in 1995.

Hello good afternoon potential clients.
I want to talk about re allotment of shares and filing of return of allotment aka CAC 2A. ABC company has five directors and they decide to remove three of the directors and leave only two. Then the company must file of return of allotment. Draft a special resolution where the directors being removed transfers their shares to existing directors, who are shareholders. Then draft a deed of share transfer. When filing, file the duly completed form of return of allotment, special resolution that contains the share transfer to existing directors, share transfer of each director leaving, then annual returns If the company is due to file.

Are you an agent? I need to replace mine but don't know how.

elyonchee:
Certified True Copies are duplicates of the original copies of documents that are missing. It is stamped by the custody officer, as certified true copies. Certified true copies are admissible in court as evidence too.
You can apply for CTC of a certificate of incorporation or other documents, through an accredited agent. Where changes where made in the company and filed earlier, please note you must apply for those copies too. For instance, where directors where changed and CAC 7A was filed or a secretary was appointed and CAC 2.1 was filed or return on allotment CAC 2A was filed, note you must file for CTC of these forms.
Also note that CAC has made changes to these forms and from Monday, filings for changes to be made in your company or business name or IT(incorporated trustee),must be done with the new forms.
