Notification of an amendment to the articles of association of an auditing company

The Chamber of Public Accountants recommends that you coordinate the draft amendment to the articles of association with them in advance. This will help you to avoid unnecessary subsequent notarizations. Sample contracts can be found on the website of the Chamber of Public Accountants.

After the amendment, the Chamber of Public Accountants will receive a copy of the amended articles of association. Once the amendment has been entered in the commercial or partnership register, it receives a publicly certified copy of the entry in the register.
