Product Description

BUSINESS AND COMPANY REGISTRATION LEGAL SERVICES IN NIGERIA

A “Nigerian Company” is widely used as the shorthand of “Nigeria private company limited by shares”. It is the most popular out of the four (4) types of business entities in Nigeria because it is a limited liability business entity for both local and foreign business to setup and manage easily. For naming a limited company, either “Ltd.” or “Limited” is often used as the abbreviation of “Limited Company”.

ADVANTAGES OF NIGERIA LIMITED COMPANY:
• Separate liabilities from owners: Company’s liabilities are limited to capital invested into the company.
• Easy company registration: None of the directors and shareholders are required to be present in Nigeria.
• Investment Incentives: It can take advantage of the investment incentives and tax exemption offered by the government.
• Easy Expansion: It is relatively easy to expand or to scale-up by selling shares or offering a stake in the business to outside investors.
• Easy to Raise Capital: It is easier to raise large sums of money for the business or sell a part of the business.
• Subsidiary company: Corporate directors and Corporate shareholders are allowed.
• Nominee: Use of nominee director and shareholder is not restricted.
• Nationality: No restriction on nationality (or, place of incorporation) of directors and shareholders
• Meeting: No restriction on the location where company meeting is to take place.
