Certified Copies of Approved Forms Now 100% Paperless

The Registrar General of Companies in Sri Lanka has officially converted to a 100% paperless process for certified copies of approved forms. This transformation brings tremendous convenience to corporate secretaries and companies alike.

As Corporate Secretaries practicing since 1991, we are thrilled with this change. Previously, we had to endure long queues to apply for certified copies, make payments, and follow up for weeks to receive the documents. Any errors on the forms required multiple visits to correct, and transferring fees was a cumbersome process. Now, the entire procedure is streamlined and efficient.

The approval for documents is granted if all the relevant information and supporting documents are provided through the online eROC dashboard. This online system ensures that the process is not only faster but also more accurate.

Advantages of the Paperless System:

1. Reduced Approval Time: The time spent on getting documents approved is significantly reduced.
2. 24/7 Access for Corrections: You can attend to any corrections at any time, day or night.
3. Convenient File Search: File searches can be conducted at your convenience, eliminating the need to visit the Registrar General of Companies physically between 9 AM and 3 PM.
4. Instant Certified Copies: You can obtain certified copies in less than 5 minutes.
5. Enhanced Document Security: Documents carry the signatures of directors and their personal details, and transferring them via a QR code adds extra protection.

The introduction of QR codes for companies in Sri Lanka enhances the security and accessibility of documents.

What is a QR code for companies in Sri Lanka? It is a quick and secure way to verify and access certified copies of documents. By scanning the QR code, users can view and verify documents instantly, providing an additional layer of protection for sensitive information.

We firmly believe that the privacy and security of all documents handled by the Registrar General of Companies must be treated with the utmost care. That’s why we have introduced TheBoardroom?, a highly secured platform that allows our clients to store and share documents securely. All our data is stored on AWS, and instead of sharing documents, users can share a link that gives direct access to the documents. To find out more, please reach out to us via www.theboardroom.lk.
