CAC & Compliance

Company Registration / Incorporation

Guidance and documentation support for incorporating a company in Nigeria.

Incorporating a company creates a separate legal entity with its own structure of directors and shareholders. We help you think through the structure that suits your plans, prepare the incorporation documents and understand what comes after registration.

We explain each step in plain language. Approval is a decision of the registry and cannot be guaranteed, but careful preparation helps reduce avoidable delays and queries.

Who this helps

  • Founders launching a new company
  • Existing businesses moving from a business name to a company
  • Investors and partners setting up a Nigerian entity

How we can help

  • Discussing company type and ownership structure
  • Preparing and reviewing incorporation documents
  • Guidance on directors, shareholders and company officers
  • Explaining post-incorporation steps and ongoing filing duties

What you may need to provide

  • Proposed company name and alternatives
  • Intended business activities
  • Details of proposed directors, shareholders and company secretary where applicable
  • Registered address details
  • Share structure information

Please note: Exact document and information requirements depend on the type of company and the current registry process. We confirm these for your case.
