Forms for incorporated societies
New legislation for incorporated societies
Use our online services to register or reregister your incorporated society and to submit other updates such as filing annual financial statements and annual returns, and keeping your society's details up to date.
There are, however, some forms that can only be completed manually and you'll find those here.
Updating names to include macrons
Use this form if you're a society that would like to update your existing incorporation tiwihikete (certificate) to include macrons in your registered name.
Registering a constitution amendment
2022 Act societies only
When registering a constitution amendment online you need to upload a certificate signed by an officer that provides a brief description of the nature of the amendment and certifies that —
- they are authorised by the society to complete the certificate, and
- the amendment was made in line with either section 30 or section 31 of the 2022 Act, and
- the constitution as amended, continues to comply with the requirements of the 2022 Act.
Society amalgamations
2022 Act societies only
2 or more societies may amalgamate as one society but only if each society is registered under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022 (2022 Act). You need register a proposed amalgamation with the Registrar of Incorporated Societies by completing a manual form and delivering it to us before the date of the proposed amalgamation.
