Does Namecorp need to become my registered ASIC agent to assist with completing the annual review?

To assist with completing the annual review, a company may appoint a registered ASIC agent, such as Namecorp, to manage their lodgements and administrative interactions with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).

Registered agents are authorised to use ASIC's online services on behalf of companies, which includes receiving and managing annual statements. If Namecorp is not already appointed as your registered ASIC agent, they would need to be appointed to assist with the annual review process. This involves agreeing to the ASIC Registered Agent Terms and Conditions and obtaining an ASIC registered agent number, which allows them to lodge changes and manage documents for the company.

It's important to note that while a registered agent can facilitate the process, the ultimate responsibility for the accuracy of the annual review and other lodged documents remains with the company's officeholders.
