Filing a notice of share redenomination
Redenomination converts your company's shares from one currency to another. You must file a notice with ACRA after passing the required resolution.
Note: Share transactions are complex and errors can be costly. If you are unsure about share matters or how to file the correct share transactions in Bizfile, seek professional advice from a corporate service provider (CSP).
If you make an error during filing and cannot resolve it by filing a Notice of Error, you may need to obtain an Order of Court to amend the error.
