Companies, charities and NPOs reminded to file annual validations

Wednesday 18 December 2024

All Guernsey companies, charities and non-profit organisations (NPOs) who were registered with the Guernsey Registry on or before 1st December 2024 are reminded that they must file an annual validation submission by 28th February 2025.

The annual validations must be filed using the Guernsey Registry online services portal at portal.guernseyregistry.com.

Unless managing a company registration through a corporate service provider or regulated presenter, all companies, charities and NPOs must submit their annual validations through an authorised filer. All legal persons are required to have a Resident Agent, unless exempt, who are appointed as the authorised filer and nominated person. More information about becoming an authorised filer and nominated person is available at guernseyregistry.com.

Any charity or NPO that is also a registered company (e.g. companies limited by guarantee) are required to file both a company and a charity or NPO annual validation.

Companies, charities and NPOs who do not file an annual validation by the deadline will be liable to a civil penalty.

Several drop-in sessions are taking place to assist charities and NPOs with their annual validation on the following dates at Room 1 at Les Cotils:

  • Tuesday 4th February, 12 - 2pm
  • Thursday 6th February, 12 - 2pm
  • Tuesday 11th February, 12 - 2pm
  • Thursday 13th February, 12 - 2pm
  • Tuesday 18th February, 12 - 2pm
  • Thursday 20th February, 12 - 2pm

Annual validation assistance will also be available in Alderney on 8th January 2025 and 25th February 2025 at the Alderney Court House. Please email [email protected] to book a timeslot.
