Company Registration

Overview

Forming a legal corporate entity is the single most critical step in establishing a scalable business in Pakistan. Whether you are an IT startup, a manufacturing firm, or an individual consultant, registering your company provides corporate status, limited liability protection, and access to corporate banking, government tenders, and global trade. At The Lawyers, we handle the entire process digitally, eliminating bureaucracy so you can focus on growing your core business.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does SECP company incorporation take?

Typically, name availability takes 24–48 hours, and final incorporation takes 3 to 5 working days after complete document submission.

Can a foreign national register a company in Pakistan?

Yes, foreign individuals or entities can hold 100% equity, subject to standard SECP security clearance procedures.

Do I need to physically visit your office or the SECP office?

No, the entire company registration process is handled 100% online. You can send us your documents via WhatsApp or email, and our team will handle all SECP and FBR digital filings without requiring your physical presence.

What is the minimum capital required to register a Private Limited Company?

SECP does not mandate a high minimum paid-up capital to start a standard Private Limited Company. You can incorporate with a basic initial paid-up capital suitable for your operational needs.

Is FBR NTN registration included in the SECP company registration package?

Yes, once your company is incorporated with SECP, we generate your official Company NTN with the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) so your business is ready to open a corporate bank account immediately.

What is the difference between a Single Member Company (SMC) and a Private Limited Company?

An SMC-Pvt Ltd requires only one director/shareholder, making it ideal for solo entrepreneurs. A standard Private Limited Company requires at least two directors/shareholders. Both provide equal corporate status and limited liability protection.

Can I open a corporate bank account right after receiving my incorporation certificate?

Yes! We provide you with the official Board Resolution drafting, SECP Certificate of Incorporation, Form II/Form 45, and Company NTN required by commercial banks to open your corporate bank account.
