About this document

Form CR13 – Notice of Cessation of Office of Secretary is prescribed under Section 249 of the Companies Act, 2015 in Kenya. This form is used by a company to notify the Registrar of Companies that its company secretary has ceased to hold office.

The form records:
- The name and number of the company.
- The name of the secretary who has ceased office.
- The effective date of cessation.
- Details of the person lodging the notice (address, telephone, email).
- Signature and capacity of the person signing on behalf of the company

The main purposes of Form CR13 are:
1. It fulfills the legal requirement to inform the Registrar when a secretary vacates office, ensuring company records remain accurate and up to date.
2. Maintains an official record of changes in company officers, which can be relied upon by shareholders, creditors, regulators, and the public.
3. Once lodged, the cessation is formally recognized in the company registry, protecting both the company and the former secretary from future liabilities linked to the office.
4. Enables monitoring of whether the company remains compliant with the requirement to have a secretary (mandatory for public companies, optional for some private companies under the Act).
