They wield the power of SARS - infused with the efficiency of the Zuma era. I have been a company director since 2019. Due to the fact that their website NEVER WORKS - I MEAN NEVER. Edge, Chrome, Firefox, TOR - NOTHING EVER WORKS. I had my annual returns ready months ago. I couldn't submit it due to Technical Difficulties. Convenient. Company in deregistration. Now they have the audacity to send me a demand for filing returns? I had to register a new entity - and guess what. Now that I want to submit my BO-Documents I can't. Worthless waste of taxpayer money.

Dear CIPC Team, I refer to the confirmation of the three-month extension granted in respect of a provisional patent application (Case No. 2024/03391) filed, and I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all the staff involved — particularly Ms Malebane, whose commitment and willingness to assist even beyond normal office hours made all the difference. Her guidance throughout the process, including the helpful suggestion to file a secondary provisional patent as a safeguard, was invaluable and showed a level of professionalism and care that truly stands out. Your team’s dedication, responsiveness, and support in ensuring that South African inventors are protected — especially at such a late hour and under time pressure — reflects the very best of public service. If more of our departments operated with the same efficiency, teamwork, and sense of duty that you’ve demonstrated, our country would undoubtedly be in excellent shape. With heartfelt thanks, Johan Reynders

Name Reservations used to take less than 24 hours ... Now it can take DAYS ON END. Company Registrations used to take less than 2 Hours then we received the Notice by SMS and EMAIL... Now it can take more than 2 WEEKS. When Astrid Ludin was at the Head of CIPC it was a pleasure... When Rory Voller took over it became a total mess.
