Keeping director information updated
Every corporation and the Registrar need to keep a record of director appointments and the personal details of each director.
Director personal details are:
- first and last names
- former names (if any)
- date of birth
- place of birth
- home address (and alternative address, if this applies)
- director ID or the fact they don’t have a director ID.
Responsibilities for updating records
Directors must tell their corporation/s their personal details within 14 days of being appointed or a change to their details.
Corporations must notify us within 28 days of changes to their directors or if a director’s details change.
Tell us when a director or alternate director:
- is appointed
- is reappointed for another term
- ends their appointment
- changes their personal details.
Notify us online about changes to corporation officers' details or you can use this form.

Alternative addresses
Directors can give an alternative address in place of a home address to go on the public view of the corporations register if:
- their name is on the electoral roll but not their address because of issues of personal safety
- the Registrar grants an exemption in writing because their safety or their family’s would be at risk.
An alternative address must be a place where a court document could be served.
