Headline: Christmas holiday office closure
Our phone line and website support services will close on Friday 22 December at 5pm and reopen on Wednesday 3 January at 8.30am. If you email us during the holidays, we’ll respond to your queries when we reopen in the New Year.
During the holiday period, you can search the Companies Register 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and file annual returns. Most other company maintenance services will also be available. The exceptions include the following services, which will resume when we reopen in the New Year:
- Approving name reservations
- Accepting director or shareholder consents
- Processing requests to confirm company authority using a letter of authorisation
- ASIC data exchange, and
- Processing paper forms filed manually.
If you need any assistance during this time, please refer to the guides in our online help centre.
We wish you a safe and happy holiday season and look forward to working with you in 2024.
