Why File Annual Returns for Your Limited Liability Partnership with CAC?

Annual Returns are a legal requirement for all registered Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP) under the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020. This statutory filing confirms your LLP’s operational status and maintains its legal standing.

  • Legal Compliance: Fulfills CAMA obligations, keeping your LLP in good standing with CAC.

  • Maintain Active Status: Avoid being marked “Inactive” (in red) and restore or maintain an “Active” status (in green).

  • Access CAC Services: Required for Post-Registration Changes: Enables CAC to process requests for changes, such as admission or withdrawal of partners, alteration of registered addresses, or other corporate changes.

  • Avoid Penalties: Late filing attracts penalties and default fees for both the entity and its designated partners, potentially leading to financial setbacks and legal complications. Filing promptly avoids these charges.

  • Demonstrate Transparency & Good Governance: Builds trust and accountability with regulators, partners, clients, and other stakeholders.

  • Preserve Access to Services: Maintain access to financing, licensing, grants, and other benefits that require proof of CAC compliance.
