- The Corporate Affairs Commission postponed revised service fees to 1 October 2025 for full stabilisation of its new Company Registration Portal
- The delay aimed to ensure a seamless, efficient transition and deliver optimum value to customers and stakeholders
- CAC thanked users for their patience and reaffirmed its commitment to a customer-centric registry meeting global standards
The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) has once again deferred the implementation of its revised service fees, with the new effective date now set for 1 October 2025.
The announcement was made via a public notice shared on the Commission’s official X (formerly Twitter) account on Saturday night. According to the statement, the decision was driven by the need to ensure the complete stabilisation of the newly launched Company Registration Portal (CRP) before mid-September.
“The Corporate Affairs Commission wishes to notify its esteemed customers and other stakeholders that, in demonstration of its unwavering commitment to service excellence, it has resolved to prioritise the full stabilisation of the new Company Registration Portal before the middle of September 2025,” the Commission stated.
The CAC had previously announced plans to implement updated fees for a range of its corporate services, which drew mixed reactions from stakeholders, particularly business owners and legal practitioners. However, this latest postponement marks the second time the rollout has been delayed.
In the notice, the Commission added, “Consequently, and in order to deliver optimum value to its various stakeholders, the Commission has further deferred the implementation of the revised fees for its services. The new fees will now come into effect on 1st October 2025.”
The statement went on to affirm the Commission’s determination to ensure a seamless and beneficial transition into the new pricing and service regime.
“This decision reflects the Commission’s strong determination to ensure that the transition into the new regime of services is seamless, efficient, and beneficial to all,” it added.
Expressing gratitude to stakeholders, the CAC concluded by reassuring users of its continued commitment to reform and innovation.
“We remain fully committed to building an intelligent, customer-centric Registry that meets global standards.”
The delay is expected to provide businesses and legal practitioners with more time to familiarise themselves with the new CRP system and prepare for the changes in service fees.
