Annual returns in Madagascar: keeping your company active
In Madagascar, companies must file an annual return with EDBM (one-stop business desk) 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 EDBM (one-stop business desk) on time.
- 2 Keep your director and ownership details current.
- 3 Set a yearly reminder so you never miss it.
