Incorporated Societies: Information Hub

Kia ora,

We’ve created this Information Hub because all 24,000 Incorporated Societies are going to need help with registration. You will find articles, guides, videos, FAQs and links to upcoming free seminars so you can be empowered to take the right next steps.

We welcome your questions and there is an FAQ with more than 115 questions and answers below.

We have held more than 20 of these sessions and here is some of the feedback we received:

This has been super!

We were all most impressed with your presentation, plain language and your passion for incorporated societies. It was most helpful in a time of change which will not be easy or straightforward for many of us in order to comply for re-registration.

Thank you for a really informative session.
