We handle incorporation with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) from name reservation to certificate, with the CAC filing fees already included.

Frequently asked questions
How long does incorporation take?
Longer than a business name registration, and dependent on the CAC. We confirm a timeline once we have your documents.
How many directors do I need?
A private company can generally be set up with one director. We will advise on the right structure for your situation.
Do I have to file annual returns?
Yes. Registered companies must file annual returns with the CAC. Our Annual Returns Filing service handles this for you.
