New form C1 replaces form 47 for registration of mortgages/charges in the Companies Office
Practitioners are reminded that a new form C1 replaced form 47 with effect from 23 October 2001. Details of certain mortgages/charges created by a company must be delivered to the Companies Registration Office on form C1 (form 8E for an external company) within 21 days of the date of creation of the charge. The filing fee on form C1 is €30 with effect from 1 January 2002.
Form 47 is no longer the appropriate form for registration of charges and will be rejected if submitted.
A copy of the new form C1 and information on completion thereof can be obtained from the Companies Office web site at www.cro.ie.
