Register a business name in Nigeria

This post will walk you through how to register a business name in Nigeria with the CAC. It’s a much simpler process when compared the Nigerian company registration process for private limited companies.

If you’re unsure of the differences between a business name and a private limited company, we’ve written a post explaining the difference.

Step 1: Name Availability Search

This is the first step in the business name registration process. This will let you know if your desired business name is available. This is always the first step when registering any kind of company or organisation in Nigeria.

Please not that certain words are not allowed when registering a Business Name / Enterprise such as but not limited to:

“Group”
“LTD” or “Limited”
“Investment”

Step 2: Business Name Application

In this document, you will list the nature of the business and the address of the business. You will also write down the owners of the business name.

Proprietors of a Business Name:

Anyone can be a proprietor or owner of a business name. Even you!

Underage Owner:

Any company or individual can be an owner of a business name. Even underage people can own a business name, however this requires special permission. If the owner is a minor, the CAC asks for an attestation from a magistrate, legal practitioner, or a police officer of a certain rank.

Company as an Owner:

A company can also own a Business Name. In this case, the CAC asks for an attestation from the company director or company secretary.

Mixed Ownership:

Owners of a business name can be a mix of individuals and companies.

Step 3: Filing

Once you’ve completed the Business Name Application. The next thing is to file at the Corporate Affairs Commission. No stamp duty is required.

Registering a business name, requires having a valid, nationally recognised form of identification such as a: passport, driver’s license, permanent voter’s card, or a national ID card.

Apply for Nigerian company TIN (Tax Identification Number)

We will educate you on the purpose of a TIN, the procedures, fees, and requirements.

What is a TIN?

TIN is an abbreviation for Tax Identification Number. It is a unique identifier which is issued to taxpayers by the Nigeria Revenue Authority.

What is the purpose of a TIN?

Your Tax Identification Number or TIN is used for paying taxes of all sorts.

Who requires a TIN?

If your company is for-profit and operates in Nigeria and generates income in Nigeria, then it requires a TIN.

Incorporated Trustees, Business Names and Private Limited Companies require it.

What’s so important about a TIN?

Opening a corporate account in Nigeria requires a TIN.

A TIN is also mandatory for the following:

Obtaining a tax clearance certificate
Accessing government loans
Accessing Forex
Applying for trade licenses & Import and export licenses
In other words, as soon as you register your company, proceed to get your TIN from your nearest FIRS office.

The TIN Application Procedure

Firstly, Pick up a TIN application from the FIRS office closest to your registered company address.

Keep in mind that you will need to have a registered company with the CAC as prerequisite. If you don’t have one, you can get started with company registration here.

After company registration, take the following docs to your nearest FIRS office:
Certificate of Incorporation Memorandum and Articles of Association Statement of Share Capital and Return of Allotment Particulars of Persons who are First Directors of the Company Company Seal TIN Application Letter on company letter head TIN Application Form (Pick this up from the FIRS office) Make sure to come with the originals along with 2 photocopies.

Cost of Obtaining a TIN

TIN is free. The only thing it costs you is your time. It can take up to 10mins to 48hrs to obtain your TIN from your local FIRS.

Some of us register companies and do not comply; you dont submit annual returns, tax returns because your company is not operating which is wrong, you are expected to submit nil returns so that the relative departments may capture your returns as nil.

All this requires one to have full knowledge and understanding of the business concepts and if you consult with the right people then you also will familiarise yourself with a lot in the business industry.
