Modificación de estatutos sociales
Toda organización requiere una serie de preceptos para guiar su funcionamiento. Es también el caso de las sociedades, que se rigen por una serie de normas. Así, pueden solicitar la modificación de estatutos sociales cuando desean adaptarlos a las nuevas circunstancias. Pero ¿en qué consiste este proceso? ¿Cómo se realiza? En este artículo le proporcionamos toda la información.
Para comenzar, debe conocer que puede firmar escritura de modificación de estatutos sociales acudiendo presencialmente a nuestra notaría en la Avenida Diagonal de Barcelona o de forma totalmente digital, desde cualquier sitio de España.
La firma digital está permitida desde la Ley 11/2023 de digitalización de firmas digitales y permite tramitar la mayoría de los documentos notariales que firman las empresas de forma totalmente electrónica, a través del Portal Notarial del ciudadano. No dude en contactarnos si quiere utilizar esta modalidad de firma ante Notario por videoconferencia.
¿Qué es la modificación de estatutos sociales?
Se trata de un trámite por el cual se adaptan o reforman las normas que rigen una sociedad. Como este código de organización está inscrito en el Registro Mercantil, es necesario otorgar veracidad jurídica a cualquier cambio que se lleve a cabo. Con carácter general, todas las modificaciones de estatutos deben ser aprobadas por la Junta General de Socios y debe constatarse el acuerdo mediante escritura notarial de modificación de estatutos sociales.
Los motivos que pueden llevar a una sociedad a cambiar sus estatutos son muy variados. Sin embargo, podemos identificar tres causas principales: económicas, jurídicas y operativas.
¿Qué pasos se deben seguir para modificar los estatutos sociales?
La modificación de los estatutos sociales debe seguir el procedimiento contemplados en los artículos 285 a 290 de Texto Refundido de la Ley de Sociedades del Capital.
A continuación, le mostramos los pasos que debe seguir para modificar los estatutos sociales.
- Redacción preliminar. Las personas que hayan planteado el cambio de estatutos (ya sean accionistas o administradores) deben presentar un documento escrito con el texto de la propuesta.
- Convocatoria de Junta de socios: se debe convocar la Junta de socios, haciendo constar la modificación que se propone.
- Votación: la Junta de socios debe aprobar la modificación de estatutos. La regla general en las sociedades limitadas es que el acuerdo debe aprobarse por la mayoría del capital social
- Escritura de elevación a público de modificación de estatutos sociales e inscripción en el Registro Mercantil: para acabar el proceso es necesario acudir a Notario e inscribir la escritura en el Registro. Son los dos trámites que las notarías podemos gestionar por usted.
¿Cuál es el papel del Notario en una modificación de estatutos sociales?
El Notario es un funcionario público y un profesional del Derecho que garantizará la legalidad de los documentos que interviene y que protegerá a todas las partes que intervienen en un documento.
En el caso de las modificaciones de estatutos sociales, los Notarios ayudamos a las sociedades a adaptarse a sus necesidades específicas y a evolucionar según lo hace su negocio, garantizando que las modificaciones de estatutos sociales cumplan la ley.
¿Cuáles son los documentos necesarios para una escritura de modificación del estatuto en el Notario?
Una vez ya hemos votado los cambios deseados en el estatuto social de la empresa, deberemos aportar la siguiente documentación ante Notario para realizar la escritura pública de modificación de estatuto:
- Documento de identificación en vigor de la persona que firma la elevación a público.
- Certificación del acuerdo social adoptado por la junta general o socio único. Deben aparecer los acuerdos adoptados, los artículos a modificar y los nuevos artículos sociales. Nosotros, desde JLA Notarios podemos ayudarle a redactar el certificado del acuerdo.
- Documentación de la sociedad y su representante: si no se tiene documentación original se puede sustituir por la obtención de la información mercantil desde la notaría.
- Acta de titularidad real: si no se dispone de este documento, se podrá otorgar en el mismo momento de la modificación de estatutos.
Modificación de objeto social, domicilio y denominación sociales en el estatuto social de una empresa
Las modificaciones que podemos encontrar en los estatutos sociales son variadas. Sin embargo, entre las más relevantes encontramos la modificación de objeto social, el cambio de domicilio social y el de denominación social.
Modificación de objeto social
Modificar la actividad a la que se dedica la empresa puede tener un impacto significativo para ella. Puede surgir por diversos motivos como la adaptación a nuevas oportunidades de mercado, por cambios estratégicos o por cuestiones fiscales.
Puede consultar más sobre las modificaciones de objetos sociales aquí.
Cambio de domicilio social
En este caso nos referimos a la modificación de la dirección física o jurídica donde la empresa tiene su sede principal o lugar de establecimiento registrado.
A diferencia de otras modificaciones estatuarias, la modificación del domicilio social de una sociedad dentro del territorio nacional puede darse por el órgano de administración de la compañía y no es necesaria la intervención de la junta general.

Cambio de denominación social
El cambio de denominación social obedece al cambio de nombre de una compañía y suele obedecer a razones estratégicas. Entre los motivos por los que se produce este cambio podemos destacar que forme parte de un proceso de rebranding o un cambio en el posicionamiento en el mercado.
Para más información sobre cómo cambiar la denominación de una sociedad ante Notario tiene disponible el siguiente enlace.
¿Cuál es el coste de formalizar ante Notario una modificación de estatutos sociales?
El precio de los actos notariales está regulado por el Gobierno y se ajusta a la normativa reguladora del ARANCEL NOTARIAL (RD 1426/1989, de 17 de noviembre, por el que se regula el Arancel de los Notarios).
No obstante, el precio exacto de un documento notarial no puede calcularse hasta que se conoce su contenido concreto, es decir, hasta que esté firmado, pues son muchas las circunstancias que lo pueden hacer variar. El número de copias que se pide de un documento, los folios que contiene y los documentos que se incorporan pueden alterar el precio.
Si desea recibir un presupuesto detallado y ajustado a su caso, le invitamos a contactarnos directamente por la vía que le resulte más conveniente. Lo puede hacer a través del formulario de contacto de la página principal de esta web, mediante la sección contactar que encontrará en el pie de página de la web, usando el acceso directo a WhatsApp en la parte inferior derecha de esta página, enviando un correo electrónico a bcn@jlanotarios.com o llamándonos al teléfono 93 159 17 62.
De forma orientativa, le podemos adelantar que, de acuerdo a la normativa reguladora vigente, el precio habitual de la formalización de una MODIFICACIÓN DE ESTATUTOS SOCIALES es de unos 160€, incluyendo IVA.
