If there is any change to the registered particulars of a public accountant, the public accountant needs to inform the Registrar of Public Accountants.

Changes to be Notified

The public accountant needs to notify the Registrar of Public Accountants within 30 days of the change if he had made changes to the following particulars:

  1. Name
  2. Identification type

  7. Contact number

A penalty may be imposed if the change is notified after 30 days.
