Change of Director or Director’s Information – CAC Filing

 

Change of Director or Director’s Information – Update Your CAC Records Easily

Every company evolves—new directors may be appointed, existing directors may resign, or their personal details may change over time. To remain compliant with the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA), every Nigerian company must update the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) whenever there is any change in its board structure or director information.

We provide fast, accurate, and professional CAC filing services to help you update your company records without errors or delays.

What Counts as a Change of Director or Director’s Information?

You must file with the CAC if any of the following occurs:

1. Appointment of a New Director

When adding a new board member.

2. Resignation or Removal of an Existing Director

When a director voluntarily steps down or is removed by resolution.

3. Change in Personal Information

Such as:

  • Name

  • Address

  • Date of birth

  • Email or phone number

  • Occupation

  • Identity documents

4. Replacement of a Deceased Director

Updating board records after loss of a board member.

5. Change of Designation

E.g., from Director to Managing Director.

If it affects your company’s board or director records, the CAC must be formally notified.

Why You Must Update Director Information with CAC

Failure to update director details can lead to:

  • Mismatched company records

  • Banking and regulatory delays

  • Rejection of filings or applications

  • Legal penalties for non-compliance

  • Disputes regarding company authority

  • Loss of credibility with investors and partners

Keeping your CAC records updated ensures legal accuracy, smooth business operations, and proper governance.
