20px;\"> Whatever be its nature, to get your business registered is one of the very important steps you must take to bring your <a href=\"https:\/\/kobotalk.com\/20-small-businesses-you-can-start-in-nigeria-with-little-investment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">business idea<\/a> to reality.\u00a0 Some people would have commenced trading before registering their businesses but it is advised that you do this at the preliminary stages of your business planning process. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">This post <strong>Easy Steps to Register A Business<\/strong> <strong>in Nigeria<\/strong> highlights the advantages you derive from registering your business and how entrepreneurs can register their business in Nigeria. <br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Benefits of Business Registration<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Generally, business registration comes with a lot of benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It protects your business or trade name: once your business is registered you can be sure that no other individual, company or organization can trade in that name<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It gives your business legal recognition<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It promotes your brand and image.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It gives your business some form of credibility and seriousness, hence customers are willing and comfortable dealing with you<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It preliminarily qualifies you to bid for contract and jobs both in the private and public sectors<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It helps you to raise funding from banks, development finance institutions, venture capital, institutional investors and individual fund providers<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It reduces your personal liability in the ordinary course of business (this advantage is associated with the limited liability company model)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">It is a definite step towards institutionalizing your business<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">We can go on and on.\u00a0 The point here is to understand that registering your business is not only \u00a0legally necessary but also commercially beneficial.\u00a0 For instance, to open a business bank account, you must first present your business registration documents for verification by the bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">In Nigeria the organization that is responsible for business registration and regulation, including non-for profits organizations such as churches, mosques and NGOs \u00a0is the Corporate Affairs Commission which was established by the Companies and Allied Matters Act 1990 as amended.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Business registration can take either of two forms, viz: <strong>Registration of Business Names or Enterprise<\/strong> and the <strong>Incorporation of companies<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The type of registration you need will depend on how you want to structure your business.\u00a0 The law recognizes three forms of business structures, namely: sole proprietorship, partnership and limited liability companies.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">If you are operating as a sole trader or you are operating as partnership with your friend or family member in a loosely or informal way, then you do not need more than the registration of business name or enterprise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Registration of business names or enterprise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">If you are trading in your true names, the law does not require that you register it. However, if you are trading in any name other than your true names, the law provides that you must register that name with which you operate your business.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">For example, if Taiwo Musa operates a supermarket in his true name as Taiwo Musa, he needs not register that name but if he operates the business as Taiwo Super Mart, or Taiwo\u00a0 Musa Express Super Market, then he must register the name as an enterprise.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">In this case, the law recognizes him as Taiwa Musa trading as Taiwo Super Mart, etc.\u00a0 Registration of business name is easy, requires limited documentation and is cheap.\u00a0 Registration of Business Names is covered under Part B of the Companies and Allied Matters Act, 1990.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Incorporation of company<\/strong> on the other hand is ideal for more structured businesses and is necessarily required for limited liability companies.\u00a0 The limited liability company model is suitable for SMEs owners that want to properly structure their businesses and have better access to emerging opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">To some extent, the legal form your business takes will impact on your ability to take advantage of emerging opportunities but an important reason you should be interested in the kind of registration you give to your business is that the law treat each type differently, particularly in areas such as tax, business debts and personal liability.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">For example, a sole proprietor is liable for the debt of his business up to his personal assets, whereas promoters of a limited liability company are not so liable.\u00a0 The liability of the promoters of a limited liability company is limited to the extent of their investment in the company, except in\u00a0 case of a criminal investigation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Registration of businesses and incorporation of companies can now be initiated and concluded online through the website of the <a href=\"http:\/\/new.cac.gov.ng\/home\/\">Corporate Affairs Commission.<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 The CAC accredits professionals for the purposes of relating with the commission on the services they render.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Most importantly, the law recognizes three categories of professionals as capable of engaging in company registration and administration business.\u00a0 These include Chartered Secretaries, Lawyers and Chartered Accountants who additionally have to be accredited by the CAC or work in organizations that are so accredited.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Before You Register Your Business<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Before you register your business you have to first resolve the following issues<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#1 Decide on a Name<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The first step to registering your business is to decide on your business name.\u00a0 In naming your business or company, choose a name that conveys something either to represent the nature of your business or a name that define your goals, values or vision.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The right name can make all the difference, so be creative in naming your business. It is also important to know that there are certain names that are prohibited by the law, acquaint yourself with such names and avoid using them for your business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#2 Write Down What The Business of Your Business Is<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">This is called the object clause and will be required as a major content of the memorandum of association of your company.\u00a0 Think through it carefully and write down the things that your business will be doing, i.e the services you are going to render.\u00a0 CAC requires your object to be itemized, simple, unambiguous and straight to the point.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#3 Decide on the Amount of authorised capital<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The amount of capital you register in your incorporation document will impact on the overall cost of your registration.\u00a0 This is because in addition to paying CAC fees which is standard, you also pay stamp duty on your authorised capital.\u00a0 Stamp duty is usually a percentage of the capital, so the higher the capital, the higher the stamp duty payable.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">For SME\u2019s operating in unregulated sectors where capital is not usually determined the regulatory authority, a N1 million authorised\u00a0 capital is ideal for the purpose of incorporating your company. You can increase later to accommodate the demands of your operations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#4 Decide who the subscribers to your share capital are<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">You will be required to provide and write the names of your initial shareholders \u2013 people who are contributing to your capital.\u00a0 The thing to note here is that for a limited liability company, the law requires that there must be a minimum of two members, that is the subscribers to your capital must be at least two people. This is understandable because in the eyes of the law you are not a one man business once you decide to register your company as a limited liability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#5\u00a0 Write Down the names of your Directors<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Shareholders are different from directors.\u00a0 While the shareholders are those who provide the capital for the business, directors are those engaged in the oversight management function in the business.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">There must be a minimum of two directors for a limited liability company.\u00a0 Most SME\u2019s will usually use their wives and children or family members to fulfill requirement 4 and 5, but it is advisable that when you are setting up a business you select to work with people who will add value either as shareholders or directors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Now The Easy Steps to Register A Business In Nigeria<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">If you have done the foregoing successfully then you are ready. <strong>Here are the steps you now have to take effect the registration of your business.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#1\u00a0 Create an Account on the CAC Portal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">You can conduct the registering of your business by yourself using the <a href=\"http:\/\/new.cac.gov.ng\/home\/\">CAC online portal<\/a>.\u00a0 To do this, you have to first create an account.\u00a0 Go to the CAC website and click on online registration, then click on register and fill out the forms as required.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">With your username and password, you can log in to the portal at any time and continue with the process of registration of your company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#2 Do A Name Availability Check<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Having created an account and received your login details, log into the portal, click on public search, type in the proposed name to see if there is existing company or business trading in that name.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">If there is a company trading in the name or using what is very similar to that name such that it is capable of causing confusion in the mind of the public, CAC will deny you the use of that name.\u00a0 If there are no existing companies or businesses using that name, then proceed to step (3), which is Reservation of Name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#3 Reserve the Name<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">You will use the business name reservation feature to reserve the name.\u00a0 If you do not incorporate your company within the period the name is on reservation, you stand the risk of losing the use that name to someone else who is ready.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#4 Complete an Online Registration Form<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">This is the Form CAC1.1 which seek to get information about your company, its members, its capital and address<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#5 Pay the relevant Filing Fees and Stamp Duties<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">You will see the scale of fees on the portal.\u00a0 While the Filing Fees is payable to CAC, Stamp Duties is payable to the Federal Inland Revenue Service and is usually a percentage of the authorized capital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>#6 Prepare, complete, scan and upload the pre-incorporation documents<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">These documents include :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
