Registered Office Change (INC-22) in India
Your registered office is the official address of your company, and any change must be reported to the Registrar. In short, when you shift office, you file the change so records and notices reach the right place. However, the steps differ by whether you move within a city, across cities, or across states. Therefore, Prospect Legal picks the right route and files it correctly. As a result, your address stays valid and your notices never get lost.

What is a registered office change, and when do you need it?
A registered office change updates your company’s official address on record. Simply put, it is the address where the ROC and others send legal notices. Therefore, it must always be correct and reachable. Above all, an old address can cause missed notices and disputes.
You need it whenever you shift your office. First, a move within the same city is the simplest route. Next, a move to another city or state needs extra approvals and, at times, member consent. Also, the address proof must be current. Because the route depends on the distance, expert help avoids a wrong filing.
Documents required for an office change
You need only a few papers to start. Also, our team checks each one before filing. As a result, the change records cleanly. Here is the full list:
- Board or member resolution for the shift
- Proof of the new address, such as a utility bill
- A rent agreement or ownership proof for the premises
- A no-objection letter from the owner, if rented
- Company and director details
- A signed authority letting us file for you
