Is my company still active on CIPC?

CIPC shows every company and close corporation with an enterprise status. Pick the status you see on BizPortal or in an Enterprise Enquiry to find out what it means and what to do.

Question 1

What status does CIPC show for the company?

The exact wording can differ slightly between BizPortal and e-Services.

How to confirm it on the official portal

  1. Log in to BizPortal, choose Services, then BizProfile, and select the company. The status is on the profile; the History tab lists processed filings.
  2. Or log in to CIPC e-Services with your customer code and run an Enterprise Enquiry with the registration number.
  3. For a document a bank or auditor will accept, request a disclosure certificate on e-Services.
  4. Check that CIPC has each director’s own email address and cell number: deregistration notices go only to the details on record.
BizPortal: BizProfile (CIPC)

This checker doesn't look up your records. It tells you what your situation usually means; the official portal has the final answer.
