Incorporate with SECP — SMC, private limited or partnership

Company Registration (SECP)

Incorporating properly protects your personal assets, makes you credible to banks and corporate clients, and gives you a structure that can take on investment. We handle SECP incorporation end to end and hand you a company that is ready to operate — not just a certificate.

Our process

How we handle it

  1. Structure advice

    We advise whether a single member company, private limited or AOP fits your ownership, tax position and growth plans — this is hard to change later.

  2. Name reservation

    Proposed names are checked against SECP's register and prohibited-word rules, then reserved.

  3. Incorporation filing

    Memorandum and Articles are drafted for your actual business activity and filed with SECP through eServices.

  4. Post-incorporation setup

    We obtain your company NTN, prepare bank account documentation, and brief you on ongoing compliance.

What to prepare

Documents you will need

Send what you have — we will tell you what is missing before anything is submitted, so nothing gets rejected on a technicality.

  • CNIC of every director, subscriber or partner
  • Three proposed company names in order of preference
  • Registered office address with proof
  • Proposed shareholding split between subscribers

FAQs

Company Registration questions

Still unsure? Call +92 339 6752500 and speak to a consultant directly.

Should I register a private limited company or stay a sole proprietor?
A limited company separates your personal assets from business liability and is usually required by investors and large clients. It also carries more compliance. We walk through both before you decide.
Can one person own a whole company?
Yes — a Single Member Company (SMC-Private Limited) allows a single shareholder while still giving you limited liability.
How much capital do I need?
There is no meaningful minimum paid-up capital for a standard private limited company. Authorised capital affects your registration fee, so we advise a sensible starting figure.
Can foreign nationals be directors?
Yes, subject to security clearance requirements and additional documentation. Tell us at the outset so we plan for the longer timeline.
What must I do after incorporation?
You will have annual SECP filings, income tax returns, and statutory registers to maintain. We can handle these on an ongoing basis.
