01. Company Administration in Cyprus
Ongoing Corporate Governance and Secretarial Administration for Operating Companies
Once a Cyprus company is registered and trading, a different set of obligations begins: statutory registers, annual filings, board and shareholder administration. Auditnet handles that ongoing governance through our associate network, distinct from the confidentiality-led structuring covered on our Fiduciary Services page.

What we do
Our Company Administration Services
The ongoing governance and secretarial work a Cyprus company needs once it’s registered and trading, kept current so nothing is missed as attention shifts to running the business.
Registered Office and Registered Address Services
Every Cyprus company needs a registered office address for statutory correspondence and Registrar filings. We provide this through our associate network, so notices and official correspondence are received and actioned promptly.
- Registered office address maintenance
- Coordination with the Registrar of Companies
- Handling of statutory correspondence
- Support for companies without a physical Cyprus presence
Company Secretarial Services
A company secretary keeps statutory registers, minute books and filings current, work that’s easy to neglect once a company is trading and attention moves elsewhere. We keep it current on your behalf.
- Statutory register maintenance (members, directors, charges)
- Annual return (HE32) preparation and filing
- Minute book and resolution record-keeping
- Notification of changes to the Registrar of Companies
Appointment of Corporate Director or Secretary
Where governance requirements call for a corporate director or secretary, our associates can fill that role, providing continuity and administrative oversight. This is a governance function, kept separate from the confidentiality-led nominee arrangements covered on our Fiduciary Services page.
- Corporate director appointment through our associates
- Board meeting and AGM administrative support
- Corporate secretary appointment and administration
- Clear separation from confidentiality-led nominee structuring
Board and Shareholder Meeting Administration
Boards and shareholders are legally required to meet and record certain decisions under Cyprus Companies Law. We organise and administer those meetings, from notice periods through to minute preparation.
- AGM and board meeting scheduling
- Shareholder resolution drafting support
- Notice, agenda and minute preparation
- Compliance with Companies Law Chapter 113 meeting requirements
Ongoing Registrar Compliance and Filings
Beyond the annual return, companies face a range of filing obligations as directors, shareholders or share capital change. We track and file these as they arise, keeping the company in good standing with the Registrar.
- Director and shareholder change filings
- Good standing certificate applications
- Share capital and charge registration filings
- Compliance calendar tracking and reminders

Frequently Asked
Questions
What's the difference between Company Administration and Fiduciary Services?
Company Administration covers the ongoing, compliance-led governance and secretarial work a trading company needs: registered office, statutory registers, filings, board and shareholder administration. Fiduciary Services covers confidentiality-led structuring for international and high-net-worth clients, including nominee arrangements. The two are related but serve different purposes.
Do I need a registered office address in Cyprus?
Yes. Every Cyprus company must maintain a registered office address in Cyprus for statutory correspondence and Registrar of Companies filings, whether or not the company has its own physical premises on the island.
What is the annual return (HE32) and when is it due?
The HE32 annual return confirms a company's current directors, shareholders, registered office and share capital with the Registrar of Companies. It must be filed each year alongside the company's financial statements, and late filing can result in penalties.
Can Auditnet act as our corporate director or secretary?
Yes, through our associate network. A corporate director or secretary provides administrative continuity and governance oversight, a distinct role from the confidentiality-led nominee arrangements covered under Fiduciary Services.
What happens if we miss a Registrar filing deadline?
Missed filings can result in financial penalties and, in persistent cases, put a company's good standing at risk. We track filing deadlines on your behalf and file proactively to avoid this.
