Change of legal address: what you need to know

In certain cases, changing the legal address of the organization is simply necessary. Change it is not so easy for the reason that it will be necessary to make the necessary information in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, while deleting the old information. It is possible that changing the legal address of the company will lead to the need to change the tax inspection.

Legal - exactly the address on which the firm is located or, in any case, should be located. It is not so rare that the legal address does not coincide with the actual one. Blame for everything is nothing but gaps in legislation.

The change of the legal address is possible only when the founders conclude a lease agreement or they will receive a guarantee letter to the concrete premises - that is, a document indicating that the transaction will be completed immediately after the founders carry out the necessary actions.

The change of the legal address is possible only after the adoption of an appropriate decision at the general meeting. The protocol of it in the future will need to be submitted to the tax inspection together with all other securities.

The change of the legal address must be carried out in stages. Of course, it all begins with the collection and preparation of documentation. A new edition of the constituent documents is being prepared .

The application to the Tax Inspectorate shall be filled in the form of P13001. Notarial his assurance will be made only after submission to the notary of an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, the old and new version of the constituent documents, the minutes of the general meeting.

Having prepared all the necessary documentation, the founders are sent to the registration authority. We should note that in Moscow you should apply to the Inspectorate of the Federal Tax Service No. 46. If everything is processed correctly, a certificate of changes will be issued after a certain time. After that, it will be necessary to re-register in off-budget funds.

After changing the address, there may be problems with the mail, as well as with secretarial services. All of them can not be quickly warned, which means that a lot of important correspondence will simply disappear. How to be? You can order a service such as "Postal Service". In Moscow it is provided by Fineco LLC.

This service will help you not to lose the necessary letters. Let's not forget that not only information from counterparties can come to the mailing address, but also a warning about any next check. Practice shows that because of the move, a lot of important notifications are lost.

Can I move, but leave everything unchanged in the documents? As already mentioned, some organizations are not located at the place of registration. On the legality of this argue a lot. The bottom line is that the law does not differentiate between the actual address and the legal address. It can be concluded that they can not punish such a thing. Is it all right? No not like this. If the firm is not located where it should, it means that the founders have made information in the Uniform State Register of Legal Entities that are knowingly false. For such an act, responsibility in our legislation already exists.
