*Company Review Service
Each year, we send your company an offer to perform your annual Company Review service shortly before your annual review date (which in most cases is the date you registered your company).
If you engage our Company Review service, you acknowledge we will:
- pay your statutory annual Company Review fee
- provide your Company Statement of your company's current details (archived in your account under your Documents Tab), or provide instructions on how to archive your Company Statement in your account
- provide payment information for your company annual review fees
- notify you of any outstanding fees (if you have appointed us as your Registered Agent)
- archive your company's Corporate Key (archived in your account under your Documents Tab) or provide instructions on how to archive your Corporate Key
- provide your Solvency Resolution that you must pass and store (archived in your account)

To keep your company registered, you must complete the following steps.

Step 1: Pay your annual Company Review fee
To keep your company registered, you can enter your Reference Number on our website - reg.com.au - and pay the Statutory ASIC Fee and our Service Fee by the due date (i.e. your review date, or within two months of your company’s annual review date) or else late fees will apply.
The Statutory ASIC Fee is: $329 (as at July 2025).
Your Service Fee is the remaining balance you pay at checkout (which may or may not include your early payment discount fee).
Payment options
Simply enter your Reference Number on our website - reg.com.au - to engage our services and we will perform the above *Company Review Service, as well as pay your Statutory ASIC Fee (that we will pass onto ASIC) and retain our Service Fee.
Discount fee
Our discount fee is only applicable if you pay before the early discount date indicated on your notification and only applies to our service fee, not the statutory fee.
Nominate us as your ASIC Registered Agent
You, as Officeholder, can choose to appoint us as your ASIC Registered Agent and you will digitally sign Form 362 - Nomination by a company to nominate a registered agent (being Registration) by physically signing on a touchscreen device, as per our instructions at the point of signing.
Late payment fee
Late fees apply if you don't pay your annual review fee within 28 days. The fees increase if you pay over 1 month late.

Step 2: Check and update your Company Details:
Once you've engaged our *Company Review Service, we will pay your Statutory ASIC Fee and you will receive your annual Company Statement (either from us as your appointed Registered Agent, or from ASIC Directly) and you will need to check it carefully. If any details are incorrect, and you have appointed us as your Registered Agent, you can let us know which company details we need to change for you. This includes changes to your addresses, contact details, officeholders and members.
Late review fee
You must lodge changes with us within 28 days of the annual statement issue date, or a further late fee will apply.
Late lodgement fee
While you only receive one annual statement each year, changes to your company details must be lodged as they occur, to avoid a late lodgement fee.
A company may be charged both a late lodgement fee and a late review fee.
Note: all statutory late fees are issued by ASIC directly to your ASIC account. We are Registration, ASIC Registered Agents 45838. We are independent of ASIC.

Step 3: Pass a Solvency Resolution
Company directors must pass and store a solvency resolution within two months of the annual review date, unless you have lodged a financial report with ASIC in the past 12 months.
A solvency resolution is a resolution made by the directors of a company as to whether or not, in their opinion, the company will be able to pay back its debts when they are due.
The directors must have a reasonable basis for their opinion and the resolution must be passed by a majority.
We will send your Solvency Resolution to you on your review date, or shortly after.
Your solvency resolution may be a:
- Positive solvency resolution - passed when directors believe that the company will be able to pay its debts when they are due. You must print and sign your Solvency Resolution document that we send you, and store a copy for yourself, and also return it to us within 2 months so we can archive it in your account.
- Negative solvency resolution - passed when directors believe that the company will not be able to pay its debts when they are due. You must not sign your Solvency Resolution and notify us if the directors pass a negative resolution.
If the directors of the company do not pass a solvency resolution within two months after a review date, you must notify us.
We will send you instructions on how to archive a copy of your Solvency Resolution in your account with us.
