Frequently Asked Questions About Business Registration 

I want to register my business. How do I start?

There are two basic options to choose from, namely Business name and Company (Private Limited Liability Company, Ltd or Public Limited Liability Company, PLC)

What is the difference between a Business Name and a Company (Limited Liability Company)?

A business name/enterprise is just you doing business with another name, meaning that the business is not separate from you. While a Company is a legal entity separate from you.


What are the benefits of registering a Company over a Business Name?

Company is usually the best form of legal status as it ensures you are not liable in case of 'business gone bad.


When you do business with a business name, your personal assets (house, land, other belongings) will be affected


It is easy to expand into more business ventures, register subsidiaries and more with a company.

Business name can't offer you this freedom. 


You can sell your shares in company (LTD) to raise capital. Investors also prefer a company to invest. That, you can't do or get with a business name.  


If your dream is to have your business outlive you- to transfer the ownership to your upcoming generations, then company is the way to go. You can have your kids as shareholders. That, you can't get with a business name.

and many more

Can I later convert my Business Name to a Limited Liability Company?

Yes, you can convert your Business Name to a Company However, It is to be noted that the process of conversions cost more money and takes a longer time. So it is preferable to register even as a small company from the start since it is cheaper


What do you mean by shares?

Shares are units of ownership interest in a Company. The purpose of the share capital is really to enable the company to be divided up in terms of ownership and control. The shareholders are granted options over the shares and the percentage of issued shares they own While owning shares in a business does not mean that the shareholder has direct control over the business’s day-to-day operations, being a shareholder does entitle the possessor to participation in the profit (dividends) or losses (liabilities). In fact, the higher the share capital the greater the capacity to handle big contracts. Most investors look at this parameter before considering investing in any business
