South Africa Business Registration
RESERVATION OF THE BUSINESS NAME

Before a CC or any company can be registered it is necessary to approve and reserve the favoured name. The proposed names (up to six) will be checked with the name registrar on the grounds that no similar, comparative or offensive name should exist. Afterwards the Registration Office confirms the name reservation, which is valid for 2 months.

FOUNDING OF CLOSE CORPORATION (CC) OR PRIVATE COMPANY (PTY) LTD

Only once the proposed name has been approved and reserved the actual registration of the company can be processed. Afterwards the new established business gets a registration number.

In addition the registration with the appropriate authorities must be arranged:
  • Receiver of Revenue which is responsible for Income Tax, Employees Tax, Value-Added Tax (VAT).
  • Unemployment Insurance Fund (U.I.F.)
  • Regional Services Council (R.S.C.)
Other authorities, with whom registration may be necessary, are local licensing authorities and/or health authorities.

When any changes are made in respect of a registered Close Corporation, it is necessary to notify the Close Corporation Registration Office. Changes may, for example, relate to membership or changes regarding the Accounting Officer, or the postal address of the CC.

Kindly be advised to reflect your choice of name carefully, as after the registration has been made, no further name changes are possible.
