Why Every Company Must Act Now
With Nigeria’s ongoing tax reforms and stronger regulatory enforcement, business owners can no longer afford to ignore statutory filings.
One key obligation many companies overlook is CAC Annual Returns filing—and the consequences are now more serious than ever.
If your company is registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), filing annual returns is not optional. It is a legal requirement that confirms your business is still active and compliant.
What Are CAC Annual Returns?
CAC annual returns are yearly filings that update the Commission on your company’s status, directors, shareholders, and operational details.
It reassures regulators, banks, investors, and government agencies that your company is alive, compliant, and credible.
Failure to file sends a strong signal that your company may be inactive or abandoned.
Why CAC Annual Returns Matter More Than Ever
1. Increased Enforcement & Compliance Checks
With government agencies tightening controls, non-compliant companies are being flagged and delisted from the CAC register. This affects your ability to:
* Open or operate corporate bank accounts
* Bid for contracts
* Access loans or grants
* Register for tax, VAT, or government platforms
2. Risk of Company Delisting
When annual returns are not filed for consecutive years, the CAC may mark the company as inactive or delisted. A delisted company is practically unusable until it is reactivated.
3. Tax Reform Is Changing the Game
Under Nigeria’s evolving tax and regulatory framework, compliance records are becoming interconnected. CAC status, tax filings, and regulatory approvals increasingly speak to each other. A default in one area can raise red flags elsewhere.
CAC Fees You Should Know
Annual Returns Filing: ₦10,000 per year
Late Filing Penalty: ₦5,000 per year
The longer you delay, the more penalties accumulate—making compliance more expensive than it needs to be.
