Companies and business name re-registration extended (again) New expiry date is 31 March 2021

The Fiji Ministry of Justice has issued a public notice further extending the deadline for digital re-registration for Fiji incorporated companies, foreign companies registered in Fiji and other businesses required to register their business names. The (brief) announcement can be found here: https://www.justice.gov.fj/2020/12/31/public-notice-digital-registration-deadline-extended-to-31-march-2021 .

The extension was necessary – and inevitable – given issues in the digital re-registration process and a late run (too late) to create awareness of the issues, particularly for small businesses.

Our last alert, backgrounding some of the issues (and the consequences of failing to re-register) can be found here: https://www.munroleyslaw.com/companies-re-registration-a-little-reprieve-deadline-extended-to-31-december.
