Annual Returns Filing & Compliance
Every registered company in Sri Lanka must file annual returns with the Registrar of Companies. Ontriq ensures your business stays compliant with all statutory filing deadlines and regulatory requirements.
Annual Returns in Sri Lanka
Under the Companies Act No. 07 of 2007, all registered companies in Sri Lanka must file an annual return with the Registrar of Companies within 20 months of incorporation and annually thereafter. Failure to file can result in penalties, director disqualification, and even company strike-off.
Ontriq manages the entire annual compliance cycle for your business. This includes preparing annual returns, maintaining statutory registers, and filing changes in directors, shareholders, and registered office address.
What We Handle
Why Compliance Matters
Non-compliance with annual filing requirements can lead to monetary penalties, loss of good standing status, difficulty obtaining bank facilities, ineligibility for government contracts, and in extreme cases, company deregistration. Maintaining compliance is essential for business continuity and credibility.
Annual returns filing is part of our company formation services. For board-level compliance, see our director services.
