Local Representative for Foreign Companies

Foreign companies are required by Section 979 of the Companies Act to have at least one local representative. The local representative is responsible for ensuring that the branch complies with the requirements of the Act. In addition, the foreign company is required to establish and maintain a registered office in Kenya which is kept open on each business day and at which a local representative is present. We provide local representative and registered office services to ease your compliance.

Company De-registration or Dissolution

In the eventually that you wish to cease operations and dissolve the company, we guide and handle the process of de-registration up to the point that the company is struck off the register of companies.

Advisory Services

We offer advisory on matters related to the Companies Act and Corporate Governance including conducting corporate governance audits.
