Company Name Change Pack

Changing your company’s name in Sri Lanka involves more than one document — you need a shareholder resolution, a name reservation request, and public notices for both the newspaper and the Government Gazette. This Company Name Change Pack gives you all five documents you need, in one purchase.

What’s included

• Name Change Resolution — the special shareholder resolution approving the change from your current name to your new name
• Name Reservation Request — the letter submitted to the Registrar General of Companies to reserve your new name, with space for the English, Sinhala, and Tamil versions
• Short Notice Consent (optional) — for shareholders who don’t want to wait out the full statutory notice period before the meeting
• Public Notice — ready to submit to a newspaper for publication
• Gazette Notice — ready to submit to the Government Printer for publication in the Government Gazette

Who this is for

Directors and company secretaries of a Private Limited Liability Company in Sri Lanka going through a company name change, from the initial shareholder resolution through to the required public notices.

Template information

All five documents are created in Microsoft Word (.docx) and are easily editable. Placeholders are clearly marked — insert your company’s details and they’re ready to use.
