Change of Place of Office · LLP · Notice & Form 15

Notice for Change of Place of Office give proper notice of your office change.

End-to-end services in Mumbai and across India for filing the notice for change of place of registered office of an LLP — preparation of the change notice, publication where required, Form 15 filing, and complete ROC intimation under the LLP Act 2008.

When a Limited Liability Partnership changes the place of its registered office, the law requires more than simply moving to a new address. The LLP must give formal notice of the change to the Registrar of Companies, and depending on the nature of the shift — particularly where the office moves outside the local limits of one Registrar to another — additional steps such as newspaper publication and partner approvals come into play.

The notice for change of place of office is filed through Form 15 within the period prescribed under the LLP Act 2008. Where the registered office is shifted from the jurisdiction of one Registrar to another, the LLP is generally required to publish a notice of the proposed change in a newspaper and obtain the consent of secured creditors, if any, before the change can be recorded. The LLP agreement clause recording the office should also be amended.

Our practice handles the complete notice and change of place of office process — advising on the procedure for the specific type of shift, drafting the partners’ resolution and supplementary LLP agreement, arranging the newspaper publication where required, preparing the address proof and creditor consents, and accurately filing Form 15 and Form 3 with the Registrar. We ensure the change of place of office of your LLP is properly notified and fully recorded in the MCA records.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is the formal notice an LLP gives to the Registrar of Companies when it shifts its registered office. The notice is filed through Form 15 within the time prescribed under the LLP Act 2008, and where the office moves between Registrars, additional steps such as newspaper publication may apply.

Newspaper publication of the change notice is generally required when the registered office of an LLP is shifted from the jurisdiction of one Registrar of Companies to another. A same-city or same-jurisdiction shift usually does not require publication.

Form 15 is the form filed with the Registrar of Companies to notify a change in the place of the registered office of an LLP. Where the change alters the LLP agreement, Form 3 is filed to record that amendment.

Where the registered office of an LLP is shifted from the jurisdiction of one Registrar to another, the consent of secured creditors, if any, is generally required before the change is recorded, to protect their interests.

If an LLP fails to give the required notice of a change of place of office within the prescribed time, the change is not recognised on record and the LLP can face penalties for non-compliance with the LLP Act provisions on the registered office.
