The Annual Returns is an electronic form to be lodged. It contains important particulars of the Company such as the name of its Directors, Secretary, its Members and shareholders, and the date to which the financial statements of the Company are made up to.
What is an Annual General Meeting ("AGM")?
An annual general meeting (“AGM”) is a way for your Company to present its financial statements to shareholders and for shareholders to give their approval for various governance matters of the company relating to the financial statements, appointment of Directors, declaration of dividends.
In order to simplify the administrative burden of small companies, ACRA has since September 2018 allow for private companies to be exempted from holding AGM provided financial statements are sent to their members within 5 months of the financial year end. Note this is subject to the agreement of all shareholders.
A shareholder of the Company can request for a company to hold an AGM even if it is exempted or has dispensed with the AGM by notifying the Company no later than 14 days before the end of the 6th month after the company’s financial year end.
