Starting a business in Nepal is an exciting venture, but the company registration process can be a hassle without the right knowledge and guidelines due to various legalities. At TechMan Consulting, we specialize in guiding businesses and entrepreneurs through this essential process, ensuring you have everything you need to get your business up and running smoothly. Our goal is to make this process easy and hassle-free for you. Here is Step-by-Step Process for Company Registration in Nepal.
Step 1: Visit the Company Registrar’s Office Website
Begin by visiting the Company Registrar’s Office website. Here, you’ll create an account to obtain your username and password, which you will need for the online company registration process.
Step 2: Choose a Unique Company Name
Your next task is to select a company name that is unique and not already in use. Conduct a thorough business name search on the Company Registrar’s website to ensure your chosen name is available. This step is crucial; a duplicate name will lead to application rejection.
Step 3: Submit Name and Purpose for Approval
Once you have your unique name, submit it along with a brief description of your business purpose for approval through the online portal. Make sure your description is clear and accurately reflects your business activities.
Step 4: Prepare and Submit Required Documents
After receiving approval for your company name and purpose, you will need to prepare several essential documents for registration. This is where TechMan Consulting comes in—we help you prepare all required documents, making the process easy and hassle-free. Our services include:
- Management Letter: A letter detailing your company’s management structure.
- Memorandum of Association (MOA): This document outlines the mutual agreement among the founders.
- Articles of Association (AOA): This outlines the regulations governing the management of your company.
At TechMan Consulting, we ensure that all your documents comply with legal requirements for business in Nepal.
Step 5: Examination of Submitted Documents by OCR
After submitting your documents, the OCR will thoroughly examine them. In some cases, you may need to make corrections and resubmit them. Once all the documents meet the OCR’s standards, you’ll be required to pay the government fees associated with company registration..
Step 6: Issuance of Company Registration Certificate by OCR
Upon successful verification, the OCR will issue your company registration certificate. This certificate legally recognizes your company as a registered entity in Nepal. Don’t forget to check the certificate for any errors, as even minor mistakes could lead to complications later on.
Step 7: Tax Registration (VAT/PAN) at the Inland Revenue Office (IRO)
Once your company is registered, you will need to register for a Permanent Account Number (PAN) and, if applicable, Value Added Tax (VAT). You can do this by submitting an online application through the Inland Revenue Department (IRD) portal. Afterward, a visit to your local Inland Revenue Office (IRO) will complete the registration process.
Documents Required for Registration
To ensure you have everything ready for your registration, here’s a list of the documents we help you prepare:
- Application for Incorporation of Company (Annex 1)
- Two Copies of Memorandum of Association
- Two Copies of Articles of Association
- Citizenship Certificate: Required if the founders are Nepali citizens.
- Unanimous Agreement: If applicable, for private companies, include a copy of the unanimous agreement among founders.
