Company Annual Return Filing Form

Filing your company annual return in Kenya doesn't have to be a paperwork nightmare. This Company Annual Return Filing Form template streamlines the entire process, helping Kenyan businesses meet their statutory obligations under the Companies Act with clarity and confidence.

Whether you're a small business owner, corporate secretary, or legal professional managing compliance for multiple clients, this form captures everything you need in one structured submission: company particulars, director and secretary changes, share transfer details, and KRA PIN verification—all organized to match the requirements of the Business Registration Service (BRS) and Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).

Built for Kenyan regulatory workflows

This template is designed specifically for the Kenyan compliance environment. It collects KRA PIN details for both the company and individual directors, tracks changes in shareholding and board composition over the financial year, and ensures you have a complete record ready for filing with the Registrar of Companies. The form's conditional logic adapts to your situation—if there are no director changes or share transfers, those sections collapse, keeping the experience streamlined.

Save time and reduce errors with Paperform

Using Paperform's document-style editor, you can customize this form to match your firm's branding, embed it on your website, or share it directly with clients via link or email. All submissions are automatically logged, time-stamped, and stored securely in your Paperform account, making it easy to track which companies have filed and which are overdue.

For firms managing multiple filings, Stepper can automate what happens next—trigger reminders for missing information, send confirmation emails with reference numbers, update your CRM or project management tool, and even generate a summary document for your records. If you need directors to sign declarations or consent forms, Papersign lets you turn those submissions into legally binding eSignature documents without leaving your workflow.

Perfect for corporate secretaries, legal firms, and business owners

This form is ideal for legal professionals, compliance officers, accountants, and SMB owners who need a reliable, repeatable process for annual return filings. It reduces back-and-forth emails, ensures no critical details are missed, and gives you a professional, audit-ready record every time.

Trusted by over 500K teams worldwide, Paperform is SOC2 Type II and GDPR compliant, offering the security and reliability Kenyan businesses and legal professionals need for sensitive regulatory submissions.
