The Business Registration Service (BRS) has warned that hundreds of companies could be removed from the official register if they do not update their records and confirm they are still active.
In a statement on Tuesday, April 29, the BRS said that many companies failed to comply with a government directive issued on October 17, 2024, which required them to update their records under Section 93a of the Companies Act. The directive gave companies until November 30, 2024, to submit the required information, including details about their real (beneficial) owners.
The Registrar reminded businesses that failure to remain compliant could stop them from legally doing business in Kenya.
