Administration of companies - Address for service

193A: Rectification or correction of address for service

You could also call this:

“Updating a company's official address in the register”

If a company’s address for service is fixed or corrected under section 360A or section 360B, there are some things you need to know. When this happens, the change doesn’t start right away. Instead, it only starts working when the fix or correction is actually made in the New Zealand register. This means that the new address becomes official as soon as it’s updated in the register.
