What the document covers
The guide addresses who must disclose nominee shareholding, the required particulars and the company's filing process. It distinguishes nominee arrangements from ordinary beneficial ownership records.
Specific requirements and implications
The guide applies to companies with share capital and distinguishes nominee-shareholder information from the controller register. Changes notified to the company must be reflected internally within seven days, with the central update following within two business days of that entry. Companies incorporated from 16 June 2025 provide the relevant information at incorporation. Keeping the register's location available for annual-return declarations is another administrative duty, separate from recording the shareholders themselves.
