No you don't need to go to Abuja, you can start and complete the process yourself...just go to CAC website and register with your email address...

www.services.CAC.gov.ng

After that you submit 2 names and pay a search fee of about 700Naira

If the names are approved you can then commence the registration process.

All payments are made online

Make sure you save copies of all online receipts you receive

Items you need:
Valid means of identification

An operational email account

A passport photograph

A certificate of competence in the field of area of the type of business you want to register

Your debit card with at least 11K for making payments

You also need access to a scanner cos there is a form you will fill online then later you print it then scan and upload after you have affixed your passport photograph and appended your signature

The whole process can be completed in about 1 week assuming you do everything properly and do not get a query.

NB- When filling the forms there is a section that asks if you need extra copies of certificates and documents, leave this blank. If you request for an extra certificate your fee will be higher.

After scanning the documents you want to upload make sure you name them appropriately so the CAC official who will process your application will not have difficulty identifying them

If you are based in Lagos I will recommend that you select Alausa as your preferred point of collection for your certificate of business name registration

Please help out, I'm in a similar dilemma. If you are registering a business on someone's behalf, do you need your personal email and passports or the email and passports of the person whom you're registering the business for?

In this instance you may use your email but you must affix the person's passport and he/she must also be the one to sign.

If you put your own passport and signature then it means that it's only you that can open a bank account and be the signatory for that business

The CAC has offices in most states in Nigeria so you can choose a collection point that is closest to you.

The issue is that I'm not sure if those other outlets are as active as the ones in Lagos

Sorry, but does putting a signature not mean the person must be there with me to append it themselves? Because this person I'm about helping out won't be able to make it.

Yes the person must be there to append it.

What you could do is to send the docs to the person to print, sign, affix passport then scan and send back to you to upload.

You need to sort out this issue properly otherwise it will create problems when the person wants to open a bank account for that business.

As far as the bank is concerned whoever signs that form is the principal officer of the business and must sign all relevant account opening documents for the business

This is not completely true!

You can't complete the process on your own!

CAC itself has empowered 3rd party guys to be doing the process and you have to go through them.
