AI Assistant for Filing Requirements

TL;DR: Scrib🐮's M3 AI Assistant answers filing requirement questions across all seven jurisdictions — what documents to file, where to submit them, what the deadlines are, and what happens if you miss them.

The Challenge

Every company formation, lease registration, and employment-related filing has specific requirements: what forms to use, which agency receives them, what supporting documents to attach, and when. Getting any of these wrong results in rejection, delay, or — in some cases — penalties.

Filing requirements also change. New South Wales introduced mandatory bond lodgement for commercial leases in some circumstances. The UK replaced paper Companies House forms with digital filing for most processes. France's Guichet Unique replaced the CFE system from January 2023. Founders and landlords working from memory or from guides they read 18 months ago frequently discover requirements have changed mid-application.

The challenge is that filing requirements span multiple government agencies, each with its own portal, its own document format requirements, and its own processing timelines. Knowing the answer to "what do I file and where?" for one jurisdiction does not help with another.

How Scrib🐮 M3 AI Assistant Solves It

The M3 AI Assistant is trained on current filing requirements for all seven Scrib🐮 jurisdictions, covering company formation, lease registrations, and employment-related filings.

Filing questions the assistant handles:

Company formation filings:

• "What forms do I file with Companies House to incorporate a UK Ltd?"
• "How do I submit company registration documents through the French Guichet Unique?"
• "What is the Bolagsverket filing fee for a Swedish AB?"
• "Can I file a Delaware Certificate of Formation online?"
• "How long does ASIC take to process a Pty Ltd registration?"

Post-formation annual filings:

• "When is the UK Confirmation Statement due for my company?"
• "What are the annual reporting requirements for a Delaware LLC?"
• "What does a Swedish AB need to file annually with Bolagsverket?"
• "Does a New Zealand company need to file an annual return?"

Lease registrations:

• "Does a New York residential lease need to be filed with any government agency?"
• "How do I register a UK commercial lease for stamp duty land tax purposes?"
• "Does a French commercial lease need to be registered with the notaire?"

Employment filings:

• "How do I register as a PAYE employer with HMRC?"
• "What is the DPAE and when must it be filed in France?"
• "How do I notify Fair Work Australia when I hire my first employee?"

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the assistant know about changes to the French Guichet Unique system introduced in January 2023?

Yes. The assistant reflects the current Guichet Unique system (https://www.guichet-entreprises.fr/) that replaced the CFE system in January 2023. It explains what documents to upload, in what format, and the typical processing timeline. For the most current information, always verify with the official Guichet Unique portal.

Q: Can the assistant help me understand what the UK Confirmation Statement requires?

Yes. The Confirmation Statement (which replaced the Annual Return) requires confirmation that the information Companies House holds about your company is accurate. The assistant explains what information is covered, when the statement is due (within 14 days of the anniversary of incorporation or last confirmation statement), and how to file it through the Companies House WebFiling portal (https://www.gov.uk/file-your-confirmation-statement-with-companies-house). The M5 Dashboard tracks your Confirmation Statement deadline automatically.

Q: What happens if I miss the deadline to file the UK Confirmation Statement?

Companies House can strike off a company that fails to file its Confirmation Statement. The directors also commit an offence for which they can be prosecuted. The M5 Dashboard sends reminders before the deadline to prevent this. See Companies House guidance at https://www.gov.uk/get-information-about-a-company.
