Change your company secretary

Every Hong Kong company must have a company secretary at all times. Draft the resolution that changes yours, free.

The rules in brief

A company secretary change is one resolution with two effective dates that must not overlap awkwardly — the outgoing secretary's last day and the incoming one's first. The resolution below sets both, and the ND2B filing follows within 15 days.

A Hong Kong company secretary must be either a Hong Kong-resident individual or a Hong Kong body corporate holding a TCSP licence. A sole director cannot also be the company secretary. There must be no gap — appoint the replacement in the same resolution that accepts the resignation, and file Form ND2A within 15 days.
