Your registered office is where the law finds your company: notices, summons and official mail all go there. Moving it involves more than a new rent agreement; the change must be approved and filed, and moves across states need Regional Director approval.
Krishna TaxNova handles all four types of office shifts, from a simple same city move to full interstate migration, including the newspaper notices and approvals the bigger moves require.
What is Registered Office Change?
A shift within the same city needs a board resolution and INC-22 within thirty days. Moving to another city within the same ROC requires a special resolution. Crossing into another ROC’s jurisdiction within the state adds INC-23 approval, and shifting to another state requires altering the MOA, Regional Director approval, newspaper publication and creditor notices before INC-22 completes the change.
Who Should Apply for Registered Office Change?
- Companies moving to bigger premises within the city
- Startups shifting from a founder’s home address to an office
- Businesses relocating operations to another state
- Companies consolidating group entities at one address

Registered Office Change: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a residential address as registered office?
Yes, a home address works with a utility bill and owner NOC. Many startups begin this way and shift later, which is exactly the change we handle.
How fast must INC-22 be filed after moving?
Within thirty days of the change. Late filing attracts additional fees and leaves your legal address wrong in the meantime.
Does changing the registered office change my GST registration?
GST is state wise. A move within the state is an amendment; a move to another state needs a fresh GST registration there, which we plan alongside the ROC process.
Why is shifting to another state so involved?
Because it alters the MOA and affects creditors and the exchequer of two states, the law requires RD approval, publications and objection handling. With disciplined paperwork it is routine, just longer.
