Annual returns in Lesotho: keeping your company active
In Lesotho, companies must file an annual return with Registrar of Companies (OBFC) to confirm the company is still active. Miss it and the registry can start deregistration, which can forfeit the company's assets.
Stay active
- 1 File the annual return with Registrar of Companies (OBFC) on time.
- 2 Keep your director and ownership details current.
- 3 Set a yearly reminder so you never miss it.
