The Certificate of Incorporation Change of Name is a crucial document required when an Irish company wishes to officially modify its registered name. This certificate must be filed with the Companies Registration Office (CRO) in accordance with the Companies Act 2014 and associated regulations. It is typically used during corporate rebranding, following mergers or acquisitions, or when a company's business focus changes significantly. The document must include specific statutory information, director certifications, and evidence of shareholder approval through a special resolution. It serves as the formal mechanism for updating the company's identity in the official register and must comply with Irish company law requirements regarding permissible names and registration procedures. Once approved, the certificate becomes the official record of the company's new name and must be reflected in all subsequent corporate documentation.
