How to appoint a new director

The change of CEO has to face many firms. This procedure requires registration with the tax office within three days after the issuance of the relevant decision. Only the old or new general director has the right to submit a package of necessary documents to the inspection. In practice, most often this is already the new first person of the company.

You will need

• - the minutes of the general meeting of participants or shareholders of the company with a decision to change the director or a one-man decision if the founder is one;

• - application for amendments to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities;

• - an order to appoint a general director;

• - a payment order with a bank mark on the payment of state duty.

Instruction manual

1

The first document that needs to be prepared is the decision of the general meeting of the founders (meeting of shareholders) or the sole decision of the sole founder on the change of the general director. This is a standard document, a sample of which is not difficult to find on the Internet.

2

Then you need to fill out an application for amendments to the USRLE. This must be done very carefully, since any checkmark in the wrong place is fraught with a refusal to register changes. Sheets regarding other changes need not be completed.

The application is filed with information about a person who has the right to sign on behalf of the company without a power of attorney, and about the applicant (if the documents are submitted by a new director, information about him is indicated in both sheets).

Application forms and sheets attached to it can be found on the Internet.

3

Prepare an order to appoint a new CEO. This is also a model document, which is made on the basis of the existing order on the appointment of the former first person. If necessary, a sample of it can also be found on the Internet.

The new director himself writes the order of his appointment.

You will need this order not only in the tax office, but also at the notary public who will certify your application for registration of changes to the USRLE.

4

The statement must be certified by a notary. He will have to submit a number of documents to the companies testifying to the applicant's right to submit such documents.

This is a certificate of assignment to the company TIN and PSRN, information about previously made changes to the constituent documents, a copy of the charter, an order to appoint the current general director and documents that you will bear in the tax (decision to change the director and order to appoint a new first person).

5

It is better to pay the state duty for amendments to the USRLE from the current account of the enterprise. A receipt for payment on behalf of an individual, including the director or one of the founders, may not be accepted.

You can create a payment using the appropriate service on the website of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation.

If you do not apply to the inspectorate, where the company is registered as a taxpayer, but to a separate register (this depends on the specific region), payment should be carried out precisely at its details.

6

A full set of documents (a statement filled out and certified by a notary public, a decision to change the director and an order to appoint him) must be personally attributed to the tax office and receive a current extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities within 10 days, subject to the amendments.
