To change a company’s bylaws, contact the government agency that handles incorporation, complete the necessary documentation, and pay a fee. The process and fees vary by location. Changes can be made when filing the annual report, potentially saving on fees.
Whether it’s changing the company’s address or the name of one of the directors in the bylaws, from time to time it may be necessary to change the bylaws for a company. To change articles of incorporation, start by contacting the government agency that handles incorporation for businesses where you live. You can do this by visiting an office, going to the agency’s website, or calling the agency by phone. To change articles of incorporation, you will need to complete the appropriate documentation and pay a fee.
The specific process you must follow to change the articles of incorporation will depend on which agency you live in. The fees you must pay, if any, will also vary from place to place. A conversation with a representative of the appropriate government agency will provide you with the necessary answers about the documents that must be submitted and the fees that you must pay.
If you are trying to change articles of incorporation when it is almost time to file your annual report, you can make adjustments at that time without incurring additional fees. In many places, you must file an annual report within the first three months of the year. This gives you the opportunity to update information about the corporation and amend the bylaws if necessary.
The company’s local or regional government may send a reminder to alert the company to file an annual report online or mail a form that must be completed and returned. You may have to pay a fee to file the annual report, but it allows you to achieve two goals at the same time and pay only one fee by changing the articles of incorporation at the same time as filing the annual report.
