The Classic Partners LLP
Intimation of Other Address (LLP)
Filing of Form 12 to intimate an address other than the registered office at which an LLP can receive documents and notices — a simple but important compliance that ensures important communications reach you reliably.
File Form 12 IntimationWhat is Intimation of Other Address?
An LLP can choose to receive documents, notices, and other communications at an address other than its registered office. To do this, it intimates that other address to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in Form 12, after the partners approve the decision. Once filed, documents may validly be served at that address.
This is useful when the registered office is not the most practical place to receive post, or when administration is handled from a different location. It is a distinct filing from a change of registered office, which actually moves the registered office itself.
Who Needs to File Form 12?
- LLPs that wish to receive documents away from the registered office.
- LLPs whose administration runs from a separate location.
- LLPs whose registered office is a professional or virtual address.
- LLPs wanting reliable delivery of notices and communications.
- LLPs formalising an alternate address for service.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is intimation of other address for an LLP?
It is the process by which an LLP informs the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, in Form 12, of an address other than its registered office at which it can receive documents and notices.
Which form is used to intimate another address?
An LLP intimates an address other than its registered office for service of documents in Form 12.
How is this different from changing the registered office?
Intimating another address does not move the registered office; it simply adds an address where documents may be served, while a change of registered office actually relocates the official address.
Do partners need to approve the alternate address?
Yes. The partners generally approve the decision to intimate an alternate address before Form 12 is filed.
Why would an LLP use an alternate address?
An LLP may use an alternate address when its registered office is not the most practical place to receive post, or when its administration operates from another location.
Can you file Form 12 for clients across India?
Yes. We prepare and file Form 12 for LLPs in multiple states and coordinate the documentation remotely.
