- Passport size photograph of each shareholder and director
- Proposed company names in order of preference

Questions about this service
No. The process runs through the Office of the Company Registrar portal. Documents are signed, notarised and sent to us, and we deal with the office. Clients in Pokhara, Biratnagar, Butwal and abroad register with us regularly without travelling.
One is enough for a private company. The Companies Act permits a single shareholder private company, and it carries the same compliance obligations as any other private company.
There is wide latitude in setting authorised and paid up capital for most activities, but capital also affects registration cost and how the company is perceived by banks and counterparties. Some sectors carry their own minimums. We recommend a figure that fits your plans rather than the smallest number possible.
Tax registration, local business registration, a bank account, and then whichever sector licence your activity requires. We map the full sequence at the start so nothing surfaces as a surprise in month three.
