SEC Simple Amendment of Articles
For Non-Substantive Changes Like Address, Fiscal Year, or Number of Directors
This service facilitates the amendment of specific, non-substantive provisions in your corporation’s Articles of Incorporation—such as the principal office address, fiscal year, or number of directors—using the SEC eAMEND portal. It ensures legal correctness, formatting compliance, and streamlined filing.
Who Is This For? Existing corporations registered with the SEC needing to amend minor, non-structural details. Ideal for address changes, date adjustments, and administrative updates.
How Long Does It Take?

What If I Don’t Have All My Information Yet?
JKNC can help verify existing filings and provide templates or guidance for missing board resolutions.
Will JKNC Do the Filing/Execution?
Yes. All document drafting, notarization guidance, and portal execution are included unless advisory-only is chosen.
Will It Be Accepted by Government Agencies and Bodies?
Yes. The amendment will be officially filed and reflected in SEC’s public records.
Can Foreign Entities Use This?
Yes. Any foreign or domestic SEC-registered corporation can file amendments via JKNC.
Is This Confidential and Protected?
