How to check your authorised shares on CIPC
Authorised shares are the number of shares that a company is allowed to issue according to its Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI).
You will need a CIPC customer code and the registration number of the company.
Go to the CIPC website for authorised share changes: https://shares.cipc.co.za/
Log in with your CIPC customer code and password
Search for the company using the registration number (e.g. 2020/123456/07) and click VALIDATE
This page should display the authorised shares* under "Shares details"
*If you do not see any authorised shares, do not panic. This simply means CIPC have failed to capture your share classes.
