The team at MoranLaw help support some of New Zealand’s largest and leading charities and not-for-profits with their commercial, governance, membership, and structuring needs and challenges.
We have considerable experience helping incorporated societies of all shapes and sizes navigate the process of re-registering under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022. We regularly advise societies on what they need to do to re-register, attend annual/special general meetings to provide real-time advice, and help societies to inform their members through the process.
If your society hasn’t started the re-registration process yet, or is still in the early stages, we can guide you through what’s required to re-register by the 5 April 2026 deadline.
Once your society is ready to get underway, we can:
- Create a bespoke constitution for your incorporated society, bringing together your existing governing document and the requirements of the new Act; or
- Review and provide feedback on a draft Constitution you have prepared for your society.
We can also provide advice and practical guidance to help your society adopt a new constitution and transition to the new Act.
