Frequently asked questions
When will my documents be ready?
We will conduct a name search to determine the availability of the new proposed company name which will be normally be approved within 24 working hours. Then we will place adverts which will be filed together with other company name change documents 14 days after the publication of the advert. The registry process usually takes 9-12 working days depending on their workload.
Do I receive any document after company name change?
You will receive a certificate of name change which is equivalent to a certificate of incorporation including a copy of your C.R. 7 and C.R. 8. If there were any outstanding statutory returns which we would have updated e.g. annual returns, you will also receive copies of those.
What are the requirements for company name change?
We just require you to provide your company name, company number and proposed company name.
Will I receive a new certificate of incorporation and company documents?
No. Your original certificate of incorporation will remain intact and will be supplemented with a certificate of company name change. The memorandum and articles of association will not change, as this lists the subscribers to the company on the day it was formed.
In many respects, the memorandum and articles of association becomes a document of historical significance, through the passage of time.
Can any type of company change its name?
Yes, any type of company can change its name, whether its a Private Limited Company (PLC), Private Business Corporation (PBC), Cooperative Company or any other company structure.
What else do I need to do?
You will need to inform the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA). You will also need to inform your bank, clients, suppliers, service providers, relevant authorities and other business contacts. Finally, don’t forget to update your company stationery, signage, website and domain name as well.
