24 Hour Name Search & Reservation – (CAC Business & Company Registration)
@ SkillPatron Ask owner
Register your business with CAC (Corporate Affairs Commission) in Nigeria.
If your business is a joint venture, an LLC, corporation, partnership, or nonprofit corporation, you’ll probably need to register with any state where you conduct business activities.
Typically, you’re considered to be conducting business activities in Nigeria when:
- Your business has a physical presence in Nigeria
- You often have in-person meetings with clients in Nigeria
- A significant portion of your company’s revenue comes from Nigeria
- Any of your employees work in Nigeria
- Some states allow you to register online, and some states make you file paper documents in person or online.
Most states in Nigeria require you to register with the Corporate Affairs Commission, the Federal Inland Revenue Service, or a local Business Agency Union in your state like APCON, NURTW etc.
With 20+ years of company formation experience, SkillPatron’s Corporate Services is uniquely positioned to help you get your new business started in any state in Nigeria, whether you live in Nigeria already, or are a non-resident. The cost to set up a corporation or business name or LLC depends on what level of service you need.
If you are a do-it-yourselfer you can set up a new company on your own, and just pay the filing fees. If you don’t have the connections, time or desire to learn corporate procedures, it will be more cost-effective to use a company formation specialist like SkillPatron. When you rely on the skill and experience of a seasoned company formation firm like SkillPatron, you will benefit by having your company registration & business set up handled properly and efficiently on time.
