LEGAL SIDE OF LLP ADDRESS CHANGE:

Registered offices are the places where official correspondence and all formal legal notices addressed to LLPs are sent. Every LLP needs a principal place of business that is called its registered office. There are several types of offices that a limited liability partnership may have in addition to its registered office, such as a corporate office, an administrative office, and a branch office.

The registered office address of an LLP can be changed within or outside the city, town, or village limits, as well as from one state to another state. Registrar of Companies must be notified within 30 days of any change in registered office. An amendment to the LLP Agreement must also be filed with Registrar of Companies within 30 days.

FEATURES:

• In India, every LLP has to have a principal place where it conducts its business, which needs to be registered as a "Registered business of LLP".
• There is no restriction on the location of this Registered Office in India.
• Official correspondence and all formal legal notices addressed to the LLP must be sent to the registered office.

 DOCUMENTS REQUIRED:

• The initial LLP agreement along with Supplementary LLP Agreement.
• The latest utility bill of the new office (not older than 2 months) should prove the address of the new office.
• If a new office is rented, a rent agreement will be required.
• Location of the new registered office address of the limited liability partnership under the jurisdiction of the police station.
• From the owner of the building, a No Objection Certificate (NOC) has been signed.

 PROCEDURE:

• IN CASE STATE AND JURISDICTION BOTH ARE THE SAME

It is necessary to pass a resolution for change of address according to the LLP agreement when changing the address of the Registered Office of LLP within the same state and jurisdiction. If there is no provision for such a change, consent of all partners is required if the Registered Office of the LLP is changing to another place.

An LLP must inform the ROC (registrar of companies) by filing Form 15 within 30 days following the passing of such a resolution. The public notice is not required when the office is shifted within the same jurisdiction.

• IN CASE OF SAME STATE AND DIFFERENT JURISDICTION

An address for the registered office of a limited liability company within the same state but in a different jurisdiction shall be changed in accordance with the LLP agreement, and if it does not provide for such a change, all partners must consent to the change of the Registered Office of the LLP.

Following the passing of such a resolution, the LLP needs to inform the concerned ROC by filing Form 15 and a copy needs to be forwarded to the Registrar under whose jurisdiction the new registered office will be located.

• IN CASE STATE AND JURISDICTION BOTH ARE DIFFERENT

A resolution for changing the address of the registered office outside the state must be passed by all partners and secured creditors when the change is initiated outside the state. In the absence of such provision, it is necessary to obtain the consent of all partners and secured creditors.

A public notice must be given at least 21 days before any notice is filed with the Registrar. Within 30 days after publishing the notice, the LLP must notify the concerned ROC by filing Form 15.

The Registrar under whose jurisdiction the registered office is proposed to be shifted will receive a copy.
