My company is in de-registration process at CIPC
Once your company is in de-registration process at CIPC, the bank won’t help you with any facilities, your tenders won’t be accepted and life ain’t gonna be fun!
How did that happen? Quite simply, you didn’t submit your annual returns to CIPC, either because you didn’t respond to our email reminding you that the return was due, or, we are not your service provider.
CIPC usually mark a company “In de-registration process” if two or more returns are outstanding. It’s easy to fix, just get your service provider to submit the returns and pay the fees and penalties.
If you don’t, then there’s big trouble. Every now and then, CIPC hits the button, and all such companies are finally de-registered.
Under certain circumstances, they can be resuscitated, but more often than not they are gone forever.

Hi Derek,
I trust that you are well.
I have a dormant company that has never traded since inception. I have not been able to submit any returns to SARS as I have been informed that there is no public officer appointed.
I would like to essentially deregister this company would you advise that I let the automatic deregisteration occur with CIPC and thereafter submit the deregistration certificate to SARS requesting them to deregister the company on their database.
Your response hereto is highly appreciated.
Hi Codey. Yes, that’s the way to go. Except there are two traps that you must avoid.
SARS is (somewhat randomly) imposing an Administrative Penalty of R250 per month per outstanding annual return mostly on dormant companies. This can very rapidly climb to tens of thousands of rands.
So:
1) Appoint a Public Officer and a Representative Taxpayer (usually you in both roles).
2) Do all outstanding and future Nil tax returns.
3) Submit the Beneficial ownership Return to CIPC.
4) Then follow the procedure that you outlined.
CIPC blocked my business bank account with Absa, and I have an a decent amount of money in the account. The bank had notified me that they would close the account if I didn’t give them updated FICA docs, showing that the company still exists on CIPC. I thought the bank was going to close the account and pay out the contents to the owner, but they are refusing to help me. I have to fix the company at CIPC and get new COR 40.5 before they can assist me. This can take months to do and I need the money urgently.
Hi Selinah,
Restoration of a company that has been finally deregistered at CIPC is a lengthy process. Usually at least 6 months.
The only help that I can offer is the restoration. I cannot change the bank’s policy.
I will send you a quotation by email.
Good day Mr Derek
I do trust that you are well.
I registered a company (Pty LTD) in 2012 but never traded at all. I am the sole director/owner.
I filed my AR (annual returns) only now and again by catching up on previous and then present unpaid ones. Due to never having traded I’d forget about the AR’s. I did have a business account but had no funds and that was eventually closed by the bank.
I do not own any immovable property nor have I any proof of having traded at the time of final deregistration. I suffered major financial losses due to being ill and cannot afford much at this stage.
I recently decided to start business and then found out that my company is in final deregistration. What do I do?
Do I attempt to reinstate the company or do I register a new one via the CIPC website? I would like to keep at least part of my company name if possible but not a must. I just need to either reinstate or register a new business. What are my options and which is the easiest process
Please do advise. Thank you kindly.
Hi Victoria,
You cannot re-instate the company because it was not trading at the time of deregistration.
You must get proof the fact that it is deregistered by going onto CIPC eSERVICES/ENTERPISE ENQUIRY
Send this proof to SARS and ask them to suspend the company as a taxpayer.
Then register a new company. If you use a name that is very close to the old one, the old company has to give permission, but cross that bridge when you come to it.
We can register the new company for you for R610 here https://www.harbourassociates.co.za/how-to-register-a-company/#start You will get the name reservation, the share register, the share certificate, B-BBEE certificate, the first 6 months bookkeeping and my online book “16 Steps to Business” which normally costs R460.
hi, My company status in CIPC says AR Final deregistration but its not allowing me to file the returns. What do i do?
Hi Keneilwe,
Sorry about the slow response. I was out of town and focussing on our other business, so let things slip a little.
Once in final deregistration, your company has been deregistered. It can only be restored if you can prove that it was trading at the time of deregistration or if it owns fixed property.
If either of these is the case and you need assistance to restore the company, please email Mini: mini@harbourassociates.co.za
Hi Derek my company is deregistred because it was not operating since 2019 ,and I had never done annual returns,so I need to re register it please advise
Hi Sinethemba,
If it was not trading when deregistered it cannot be restored. You will need to register a new company which you can do here https://www.harbourassociates.co.za/how-to-register-a-company/ at a cost of R610.
Your real problem is SARS. You need to do all the outstanding Nil returns, prove to them that your company was de-registered and apply for them to deregister it as a taxpayer. If administrative penalties have been imposed, you will also have to apply for them to be reversed.
We can do all of tbhis for you. Tumi can advise and quote you. 011 805 0030 or tumi@harbourassociates.co.za
Do not register a new company unless you are serious about trading, because all companies have to submit tax returns, annual CIPC returns and a beneficial ownership return to CIPC and when these are neglected the consequences can cause you stress.
Hi Derek,
I registered a company on cipc never operated it and never registered it fully with sars as a result. May you shed some light on if this would have any penalty implications on me directly . It has been dormant since inception. I’ve also closed down the bank account.
Regards,
Hi Codey,
When you register a company at CIPC it is automatically registered as a taxpayer at SARS.
SARS had been hitting dormant companies (not all of them, strangely) with R250 each month for each overdue Income Tax return.
You are also required to submit an annual return to CIPC. If you don’t, then CIPC will eventually deregister the company. Thereafter, you can apply to SARS to deregister it for tax, but only if the tax affairs are up to date.
It is the company that is liable for any taxes and CIPC fees, not you personally.
Finally, you personally as the director, are required to submit a once only Beneficial Ownership return for the company to CIPC.
Hi Derek,
I have a few questions regarding a company that is listed as AR Final degregistration – where can I post these as to get some advice? Thanks
Hi Belinda,
I have responded to your email.
Hi there
I got a sms from SARS saying I’m owing money for a company registered in 2012 that has never been operational.
When I checked on CIPC it says: AR Final deregistration
Please can you advise me.
Regards
Hi Nqobile,
Step 1 is to obtain proof of Final de-registration at CIPC.
Step 2 is to send it to SARS and at the same time apply for reversal of the administrative penalties.
We can do it, but cannot guarantee that the request to SARS will be granted.
Send me an email if you would like a quotation.
Good day
How can I reregister company
Was dormant for 11 years.
File my Tax return on compaias required by. SARS.
I want to operate the company again.
Can’t open bank account due to deregister
Hi Ashraf,
Be careful. SARS may have hit the company with R250 each month for each outstanding tax return (even though it would have been a Nil).
If that’s the case you certainly do not want to trade that company again.
If, however, SARS haven’t woken up yet (and they seem very random when selecting companies to penalise), then you can only restore the company at CIPC if it owns fixed property or if you can prove that it was trading at the time of de-registration. However, it’s an expensive and lengthy exercise. If you want to go ahead, we can quote for some of the job, but only establish the total cost once we see what returns (CIPC and SARS) are outstanding.
how do i prove that my company has been deregistered. K2017386035
Hi Thilivhali,
You can get an official disclosure certificate from CIPC. We can get it for you for R1 060. If you would like us to do so, then please call Mini on 011 805 0030
Hi, how do I re-instate a deregisterd company due to AR not being submitted?
Hi Charmaine,
It can only be done if:
1) It owns fixed property (cost roughly R20 000) or
2) You can prove that it was trading at the time it was de-registered (cost roughly R10 000).
If either of these applies, then we can get the company re-instated.
It takes a long time (often over 6 months).
The actual fee depends upon outstanding CIPC and Tax returns and also whether SARS has hit the company with Administrative Penalties.
Hi Charmaine,
If it is only in de-registration process, it is easy.
If it is finally de-registered it can only be restored if:
1) It owns fixed property (cost about R20 000) or
2) You can prove that it was trading at the time of de-registration (cost about R10 000).
The actial cost depends on what returns are outstanding at SARS and CIPC and whether SARS has hit the company with Administrative Penalties.
Very good morning to you Sir. My company is not operating since 2014 and I found myself in trouble Sars says I owe R40,500 and I told them it’s not working, they said I need to deregist my company. So please send me a form om my email to deregist Sabelwesihle trading and
projects pty Ltd.
Thank you
Hi Senamile,
You are in luck. Your company is already de-registered at CIPC for non-submission of annual returns. I have sent you proof via email. You need to show the proof to SARS and ask them to cancel all the administrative penalties and de-register the company as a taxpayer. We can help if you get stuck, but we do charge for that.
Sir,
I registered a company in 2020 but it never traded until January 2024 when it got a three year contract with the Department of Transport, Eastern Cape. I have just learnt that the company has just been deregistered early this year for non compliance. I have a Letter of Appointment for the company by the Department of Transport but I am afraid that the status of registration of my company can have a negative impact on the signing of a contract while the company is deregistered.
The company’s tax status at SARS and CSD show that the company is tax compliant. I understand that a deregistered company can only be resuscitated if it has an immovable property or it was active at the time of deregistration. The company’s Appointment letter is dated 17 January 2024 but it was deregistered after it had been employed though the contract was not signed.
I am afraid that the final deregistration of my company will result to the company losing the contract it has just secured. Can you advise on what I can do to save the company’s demise?
Hi Lwandiso,
That’s a tricky one. It is not quite clear whether the Letter of Appointment was dated before or after the company was de-registered.
Unfortunately, if the company was de-registered before, then you have no proof that it was trading, except by argument that it must have been in negotiation with the Department in order for the appointment to have been made.
I think that the sooner you put in an application for re-instatement the better. Then, depending upon the outcome, you can plan a way forward. We can submit if you are not comfortable doing it yourself.
Hi, My companies have de-registered with CIPC and have received certificates from CIPC. I went to SARS and was advised to activate tax number. I don’t understand why should I activate tax number because they are de-registered and never operated and never opened bank account.
Hi Charlie,
The reason is that all companies, whether active or dormant, must submit provisional and Annual tax returns. you didn’t do that, so SARS requires you to be compliant before they will act.
Good day
My company has been ar deregistered however it was dominant for almost all the time Traded a little i am now worried about Sars Have not received a letter however know of people who have
How do I proceed ?
Must I submit an affidavit .
Thank you again
Hi Louise,
If your company has been finally deregistered at CIPC, you can send proof of this to SARS and request that it be de-registered as a taxpayer.
All outstanding returns must have been submitted and there must be no amounts outstanding. If the company has been hit with administrative penalties, you will need to apply to have them reversed.
Hi Derrick
I registered a company in 2020.
The company never traded due to the COVID pandemic. I also never opened a bank account. I naively assumed that non filing of the Annual Returns would result in an automatic deregistration and that would be that.
But last year I was sent a notice by SARS to file my income and provisional taxes or face penalties.
Having read on a business info website that i could voluntary de-register my company by submitting a tax compliance certificate from SARS amongst others, i filed all my outstanding tax returns from 2020 to date. Now because I had not opened a bank account for the business, I put my personal bank account on the SARS registered details for the business. My worry is whether, if any penalties are imposed, that they would now be deducted from that account. Can i remove my bank information without having to provide new bank details? I am really not interested in opening a new account for a business I intend to deregister.
Hi Olivia,
I suggest that you phone SARS and explain all that. It is possible that the company does not owe anything, but there’s also a possibility that they imposed Administrative Penalties for non-submission. I’m not sure whether they could grab those penalties from your bank account, but there is a risk, so the matter needs to be settled.
Good day
I have a company that has been deregistered but there is a fixed property. Now i need to sell the company with the property and now it is a problem.
What do i need to
Hi Estelle,
I apologise for the delay. I seem not to be receiving notificaions of comments for some reason.
Because it owns fixed property, the company can be restored, but it is a long process and fairly expensive. I have sent you a quotation by email.

Good day.
I registered a business in 20006 but it never became operationable it was only a company registered in name we were 2 partners nothing like vat or anything like professional tax was ever registered we totally forgot about it and resently in 2024 only remembered about it.I ln the mean time I registered for provisional tax under my own name and even received some refunds from sars.Do you think that if there was any penalties under the business that refunds would have been paid bqck if I owed penalties under my own name.It turns out Cips deregistrered the company in 2011 and like I sad nothing was registered from oir side like vat and so on.No nill tax returns was submitted from 2006 to 2011 when it was deregistered.We also didnt deregister anything from our side to sars.Do you think there will still be outstanding tax returns as of from 2012 going forward or not.The company didnt have any assets,bank accounts or properties.
Hi Luarika,
I apologise for the delay. I seem not to be receiving notificaions of comments for some reason.
Even dormant companies are required to submit tax returns and SARS is hitting lots of them with a R250 penalty each month for each outstanding return.
You cannot de-register the company as a taxpayer if there are returns and/or payments outstanding, which is the case with your company.
Having said that the penalty debt (if there is one) is owed to SARS by the company, not by you. Your affairs are isolated from those of the company. There are exceptions to this, but they don’t apply in your case. You can safely ignore the company and SARS.
Good day Derek my company has been deregistered,it has been registered in 2015, without any operation, I’d to reactivate it,how can I do it?
Hi Desmond,
You can’t. A de-registered company can only be restored if it owns fixeed property or can be proved to have been trading at the time of de-registration.
Hi my company is on a deregistration process and i want to save it from being deregistered. What must i do?
Hi Mamikie,

Hi i have the same challenge i want to find out if i can save a NPC register under my name
Hi Creston
I apologise for the delay. I seem not to be receiving notificaions of comments for some reason.
If the company is in Final de-registration it can only be restored if you can prove that it was trading at the time of de-registration or if it ownes fixed property.
If it is in “deregistration process” it can be restored. Please call my office 011 805 0030 or email mini@harbourassociates.co.za for assistance.
Hie Derek. I have a company which is in de-registration phase.
I registered a company and opened a bank account but then COVID hit and the company hasn’t operated since then. however i have been using the bank account for personal errands.
What happens when the company is de-registered? Will the bank account close and if so what happens to my personal funds in the account?
Hi Lincoln,
I suggest that to keep things simple, you open a personal bank account and don’t use the company’s. SARS is hitting dormant companies with R250 each month for every annual tax return outstanding. Yours may not yet have been hit, but the last thing you want is for SARS to grab your money from the account to pay the penalties.
Good day
If a company has been deregistered by CIPC, is it still necessary to submit returns to SARS?
Hi Archie,
Yes. You should send proof of de-registration to SARS and request that they de-register the company as a taxpayer.

Hi I have two companies in ar deregistration . Does this mean they are deregistered ? One was dormant for 15 years. The other has been trading a little but no assets . I don’t need them anymore. Can sars come after my third cc to claim assets ? Can I submit tax return on paper at the sars offices ? Thank you
Hi Will,
AR deregistration means that they have been finally de-registered.
SARS cannot attack your third CC for the taxes of the other two.
I believe you can submit taxes manually at the SARS offices, but have no direct knowledge of that as we always work electronically.
Hi Derek,
What do I need to do to deregister my company K2019560355, which was not operational since inception and I did not open a bank account? And what are my SARS obligations? Thanks
Hi Pam,
Your best bet is to let CIPC de-register it and ignore any penalties imposed by SARS, because the company will never have any funds to pay those penalties.
In my experience, none of the above will prejudice you or any future company that your register.
I also did not submit the AR during this dormant phase. Do i ignore that as well? Will they deregister if outstanding?
Hi Pam,
If by AR you mean the CIPC Annual Returns,that’s exactly why they will de-register.
If you mean the Income Tax AR, CIPC will deregister regardless of that.
Thank you.
Hi
My company, Blue Page Document imaging (K2015310853) is in AR final deregistration process. The company was registered but nothing else was done, no bank account opened and it was never operational.
However I believe I have outstanding admin penalties and I have received an SMS from SARS stating that all outstanding returns should be filed within 10 days or there will be criminal proceedings. Can you help?
Hi Stephan,
Your best bet is to ignore any penalties imposed by SARS, because the company will never have any funds to pay those penalties.
In my experience, none of the above will prejudice you or any future company that your register.

Hi Nash,
My apologies for the late response. I have been hospitalised.
I’ve done that before, but it was a long time ago, before CIPC automatically de-registered companies. You best bet is to get us to try to reserve the name. Contact mini@harbourassociates.co.za
Hi there, my company Pristine Amalgamations is currently in a de-registration status. The company has basically been doormat. There are no assets and it has never traded since registration. We do want it to be de-registered however we are unable to pay the penalties, if any. What would you advise ? are there services you provide to speed up this process.
Kindly let me know to the above.
Hi Tamlyn,
My apologies for the late response. I have been hospitalised.
Your best bet is to do nothing, either with SARS or CIPC. Eventually the company will be de-registered and if SARS imposes Administrative Penalties they can’t collect them from a company that has no money.
What if you haven’t been operational and your turnover is zero?
We have a bank account but a business account expense was for web hosting services. Should we let CIPC deregister it? Would this disqualify us from registering a new company or being directors of other companies?

Hi. Please can you please help fast track the deregistration. Its on AR deregisteration. K2019271769 Sirmanz pty Ltd
Hi Sithembiso,
The only way to fast track de-registration is to apply to CIPC for de-registration. We charge R4 500 for this if the company has never traded, or R10 500 if it has traded. So, I think the best bet is to be patient and wait for CIPC to de-register it.
Hi, I would like our company to be deregistered. It has a bank account but no assets. Should I just not file returns so it can be deregistered? We are 4 directors who are out of touch, the paperwork to do it via CIPC is just a nightmare.
Hi Abdullah,
If it were me, I would simply ignore CIPC and SARS. Technically, the problem will never go away, but in reality it will.
Oh Abdullah,
Also close the bank account.

Hi Xolisa,
I will send you a quotation by email. However, there’s also the question of tax returns.
The company was registered in March 2021, which means that the following Nil returns should have been submitted –
1st Provisional 2022, 2023 and 2024
2nd Provisional 2022 and 2023
Annual 2022
I will also quote for those on the assumption that they have not been done.
SARS is imposing a penalty of R200 each month for each outstanding return, but only hitting some companies, not all at this stage. I get about 300 emails from SARS for companies that have been hit.
We will only know about yours if and when we load your company onto our e-filing.

Hi Johannes,
Yes, it has been finally de-registered. It can only be restored if you can prove that it was trading at the time of de-registration. Our fee (excluding the outstanding CIPC fees and penalties) is R6 000.
I have emailed you a quotation.
I have loaded the company onto our CRM so that emails will be sent to you whenever a return is falling due, so you won’t get caught out again.
Good evening sir/madam. My name is Josiah . I like to kno8 how is my company needs to pay for annual fee. The company name is goldee trading 208 cc . Reg 2005/0317113/23. From Josiah khoza.
Hi Josiah,
Unfortunately your CC has been finally deregistered by CIPC for failure to submit annual returns and pay their fees.
The CC can only be rescued if you can prove that it was trading at the time that it was de-registered. We have to prove that by submitting bank statements, but until we start, we don’t know when the deregistration happened.
Our fee of R6 500 does not include the submission of the missing returns or the fees that were unpaid.
You can contact me on derek@harbourassociates.co.za if you want to go ahead.

I’ve never engaged contact with SARS before and on CIPC my company status shows NOT DISQUALIFIED. I also have a balance of my money available there. Do I still need to make contact with SARS regarding my company being deregistrated or can I proceed with a new registration?
Hi Victoria,
The old and new companies are entirely separate issues. So, yes, you need to follow my earlier instructions, but that does not affect the new company in any way.
Be aware that after registration of the new company, you have 10 days in which to submit its Beneficial Ownership return to CIPC. If you struggle with it, we can assist.

Good day.
My company name is JCB Engineering (PTY) Ltd (Registration number: K2019067505) and is listed under Enterprise Status with CIPC as: AR Deregistration Process.
This is obviously due to not having filed annual returns.
I also ceased trading in this business for an extended time and thus Nedbank closed the bank account in 2019.
Can you assist with reversing this status so that I can become compliant and resume trading.
I assume Nedbank will then open another account no and we will be good to go.
Please advise.

Please give me a quote for a company in ‘final deregistration. From 20/19/08
R650 outstanding.
Hi Clive,
The company can only be pulled out of final de-registration if either –
* You can prove that it was actually trading when it was finally de-registered (R6 500) or
* It owns fixed property (R8 800)
It is usually best just to start a new company for R475
my company is in process of de-registration please help
Hi Franshwa,
It’s not a train smash. You’ve just missed a few CIPC annual returns. Submitting them solves the problem as long as you don’t delay.
If your turnover is less than R1m, the CIPC fee with penalty is R150 for each return. Our fee is R970 to do the catch up.
If you email me the name of the company, I can see how many returns are outstanding and send you a quote. At the same time, please confirm your turnover.
HI I would like to stop the de-registration on my company
Hi Thomas,
As long as it is not in “Final de-registration”, it can be done. Please call Mini on 011 805 0030
No assets
Hi Vivian,
Was that a comment? If so I’m not sure how to respond.
