Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about the registration process, pricing and what happens once your company is filed with CIPC.
Registration Process
How long does company registration take?
Company registrations typically take between 3–5 working days. This depends on CIPC's workload, but we work closely with them to ensure your business is registered as quickly as possible.
What documents do I need to provide?
You'll need certified copies of all directors' ID documents, proof of payment, and completed registration forms.
Can I register any type of business?
We specialise in Private Company (Pty Ltd) registrations — the most common business structure in South Africa.
What if my company name is not available?
We'll check name availability as part of our service and suggest alternatives if needed.
Pricing & Payment
What does the R850 fee include?
CIPC registration fees, Memorandum of Incorporation, company name reservation, tax registration number, share certificates, and all necessary documentation.
Are there any hidden fees?
No hidden fees. The only additional costs might be certified copies of documents or expedited courier services.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept EFT bank transfers, credit cards, and debit cards, processed securely.
Do you offer refunds?
Refund terms are set out in our published terms and conditions and should be reviewed before any payment is made.
How do you handle my personal information?
We only use the information needed to complete your filing and keep it secure in line with POPIA and reasonable business practice. Sensitive documentation is handled privately and only for the purpose of the service requested.
After Registration
What happens after my company is registered?
You'll receive your Certificate of Incorporation, MOI, share certificates, and tax registration number, and can start trading immediately.
Do you help with tax registration?
Yes. Tax registration with SARS is included, and you'll receive your income tax registration number.
Can you help with opening a business bank account?
We don't open accounts directly, but provide all documentation banks require.
What ongoing compliance is required?
Companies must file Annual Returns and a Beneficial Ownership declaration with CIPC, and maintain proper accounting records.
Refund terms should be published in the site terms and conditions before any refund language is stated publicly.
