What is Company Registration? A Simple Guide
Company registration is the official process of creating a new business entity that is legally separate from its owners. In South Africa, this is done through the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC). Registering a PTY (Private Company) creates a for-profit business that can trade and offers owners “limited liability” (protecting their personal assets). Registering an NPC (Non-Profit Company) creates an organisation for public benefit, where all funds must support its mission.

Navigating the CIPC’s requirements can be a complex and frustrating process. Our team has successfully registered over 10,000 companies and non-profits in South Africa. We handle the complexities with speed and precision so you can focus on your vision, not the paperwork.
