What is a CROS Account?
A Companies Registry Account (CRA) is your personal account on the Companies Registry Online System (CROS). It is required before you can take any steps to incorporate a Non-Profit Company in Trinidad and Tobago.
Who Needs a CROS Account?
Every person who will be listed as a Director of the Non-Profit Company must have their own CRA. You cannot share accounts. If your NPO will have 3 Directors (the minimum required), all 3 must each create their own account before the incorporation process can begin.
How to Create Your CRA
Go to the CROS registration page and register for an account. You will need to provide:
- Personal information (name, date of birth)
- Address
- Contact information (telephone, email)
- Two forms of photo identification
- Birth certificate
Need Help?
If you have problems creating your CROS account, email the CROS Help Desk at [email protected].
Next Step
Once all Directors have their CRA, the applicant can proceed to reserve the company name. See Reserving Your Company Name.
