How do I add or remove a director of my New Zealand company?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

Register a new director within 20 working days of the appointment, with that person's signed consent, and notify a resignation or removal within 20 working days as well. The company must still have a director who lives in New Zealand, or in Australia and is a director of an Australian company. We prepare and file the changes.
