Implementation of the Eleventh Company Law Directive

3.—(1) Part XXIII of the 1986 Order (companies incorporated outside Northern Ireland carrying on business in Northern Ireland) shall have effect subject to the amendments set out in Schedule 2. After Article 654 of that Order there shall be inserted—

“Registration of branches of Part XXIII companies

654A.—(1) For each company to which Article 640A(1) applies the registrar shall keep, in such form as he thinks fit, a register of the branches registered by the company under paragraph 1 of Schedule 20A.

(2) The registrar shall allocate to every branch registered by him under this Article a number, which shall be known as the branch’s registered number.

(3) Branches' registered numbers shall be in such form, consisting of one or more sequences of figures or letters, as the registrar may from time to time determine.

(4) The registrar may upon adopting a new form of registered number make such changes of existing registered numbers as appear to him necessary.

(5) A change of a branch’s registered number has effect from the date on which the company is notified by the registrar of the change; but for a period of three years beginning with the date on which that notification is sent by the registrar the requirement of Article 643(3)(2) as to the use of the branch’s registered number on business letters and order forms is satisfied by the use of either the old number or the new.

(a)adopting particulars already filed in respect of another branch; or

(b)including in one document particulars which are to relate to two or more branches,

the registrar shall ensure that the particulars concerned become part of the registered particulars of each branch concerned.”.
