FAQ
Business Name Registration in Nigeria: FAQs
Registering with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) makes your business official. It lets you open a business bank account, protects your name, builds trust with customers and gives you access to loans, grants and contracts that are only open to registered businesses.
With our Silver package, registration usually takes 1 to 5 working days. The Founder’s Package takes 3 to 7 working days because it includes opening your business bank account. Delays at CAC can happen, but we follow up and keep you updated at every step.
You need a valid ID (such as your NIN slip or international passport), a passport photograph, your signature, 2 or 3 proposed names, your business address, phone number, email and a short description of the business. We send you a simple checklist after you order.
Don’t worry. If your name is not available, our consultants will help you adjust it into a format CAC will approve while keeping the main idea, at no extra cost. If that still doesn’t work, we will help you come up with new name options.
Yes. A business name can be owned by one person or by partners. If you want a more formal partnership, we also register Limited Partnerships (LP) and Limited Liability Partnerships (LLP).
A business name is cheaper, faster and simpler to run, so it suits small businesses, traders and freelancers. A limited liability company is a separate legal entity that protects your personal assets and is better for investors and large contracts. You can start with a business name and upgrade to a limited liability company later.
