What is Nexora Division and how does it fit into Dedry Group Holdings?

Nexora Division is the specialized business administration, operational strategy, and statutory compliance division of Dedry Group Holdings. Dedry Group operates as a unified parent group providing three core capabilities: Nexora Division (business administration, compliance, process management, and virtual assistants), AetherTech (enterprise IT infrastructure, cloud computing, cybersecurity, and software development), and Glorica Cleaning Services (commercial, office, and industrial workplace sanitation).

Why should we partner with Nexora Division instead of hiring internal administrative staff?

Hiring internal administrative employees introduces substantial overhead: recruitment fees, hardware and software licenses, office desk space, UIF contributions, COIDA levies, paid annual leave, sick leave coverage, and ongoing HR management. Nexora Division provides professionally managed, dedicated caseworkers under a predictable monthly retainer with zero employment liabilities and guaranteed backup coverage, ensuring 100% operational continuity.

How does Nexora Division guarantee the security and confidentiality of our data?

Every engagement begins with an appropriate confidentiality agreement. Nexora applies access-controlled working practices, documented information-handling procedures, and POPIA-aligned operational protocols based on the scope of each client engagement.

What South African regulatory mandates does Nexora help businesses comply with?

We assist businesses with the full spectrum of South African corporate compliance, including the Companies Act 71 of 2008, CIPC Annual Returns submissions, mandatory CIPC Beneficial Ownership Registers under the General Laws Amendment Act 22 of 2022, director CoR 39 updates, SARS Corporate Income Tax administration, PAYE/UIF registrations, and the King IV Code on Corporate Governance.

What is your typical turnaround time (SLA) for administrative tasks and requests?

Our standard operational SLA is 48 hours for general administrative requests, document formatting, and filing preparation. For clients on our Growth Operations and Enterprise Governance retainers, we offer priority 24-hour turnaround and dedicated 4-hour emergency protocols for time-critical statutory filings or executive board materials.

Can Nexora assist early-stage startups and solo entrepreneurs?

Yes. Our Startup Formation Kit is specifically tailored for founders and new ventures. We handle full CIPC company registration, Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI), SARS tax number generation, banking onboarding packs, and initial shareholder registers within 3 to 5 business days, establishing an unshakeable foundation from Day 1.

CIPC Compliance Checklist: What Every Business Director Must Know

By Statutory Secretarial Lead•Head of Corporate Governance, Dedry Group• July 2026• 7 min read

Under South African corporate law, company directors carry personal fiduciary responsibilities. Failing to comply with CIPC filing mandates can lead to penalties, loss of commercial tenders, or automatic company deregistration. Here is your essential compliance checklist.

1. The Annual Return Obligation

All companies (Pty Ltd, Non-Profit, and Close Corporations) must submit their Annual Return to CIPC within 30 business days from the anniversary date of incorporation.

This submission confirms whether the company is still actively trading and updates official turnover brackets. Failure to submit leads directly into 'Deregistration Final' status.

2. Beneficial Ownership Filings (Mandatory)

Following anti-money laundering amendments, South African entities must maintain and file a register of Beneficial Owners with CIPC. Failure to do so exposes directors to compliance notices and hefty statutory fines.

Key Executive Takeaways

•Check your CIPC status quarterly to verify active standing.
•Update director residential and postal addresses within 10 days of any change.
•Keep certified copies of all director IDs on file for statutory verification.
