1, A business can be operating and be conducting activities without being registered. These are usually small businesses and operators here are generally called informal sector. 2, A business can be registered without being incorporated, if it's not a company. Registration as sole proprietorship, enterprise, business name, partnership etc. 3, Incorporation is the formal registration process for a company. It is only a COMPANY that is incorporated. 4, A business can first register as a business name (I.e registered but unincorporated) and decide to incorporate (I.e become a company) later. 5, A business can be registered, incorporated or just a business name (unincorporated business) and not having any operations, I.e idle, dormant registered business. 6, A company might be established in 2006 and later on, say in 2012, merged with a company incorporated in 1960. The new enlarged company can use the 1960 incorporation date. So these are the dynamics. Whichever you want to use as year of establishment depends on your purpose. However, I don't think you can use number 1 as year of establishment for a legal use. 6 Likes 1 Share |

routik: Year of establishment means the year u start up ur business and start selling out ur product. EG I setup a shop and start producing Orijin today 23/3/16. What is an 'Incorporation' The process of legally declaring a corporate entity as separate from its owners. Incorporation has many advantages for a business and its owners, including: 1) Protects the owner's assets against the company's liabilities 2) Allows for easy transfer of ownership to another party 3) Achieves a lower tax rate than on personal income 4) Receives more lenient tax restrictions on loss carry forwards 5) Can raise capital through the sale of stock Details: U may operate ur company for more than a year and ur company may not be incorporated meaning u did not registered with CAC. without registration any body can sue u in person if ur company misbehave. But if u incorporate ur company, the company can sue and be sue meaning its a person in abstract, it can own access, and no one disturb u in person if the company goes wrong, but rather disturb the company as a person. CHOOSING A CELEBRATION YEAR. Rightfully, if u are to choose a year to celebrate your company, it has to be year of establishment and not incorporated year. because the year ur company planted a seed must be remembered. For example: u might have heard a company's history that goes this way:- GAMJI AND SON'S was established in year 1980 and was incorporated in the year 1981, the first director was Alh Aminu ......... |
Re: Difference Between Incorporation Year And Established Year? by rhames(m): 6:40pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
routik: These two questions that usually confuse those in and those about to start up a business. from the point of the accountant and tax man, year of establishment is the year you started business. The year of Incorporation is the year in which you registered that organisation to be a business name or registered company or organisation. When you want to celebrate your anniversary, choose the date of establishment not the date of incorporation. 1 Like 1 Share |

Year of incorporation means the year of legally declaring the corporate entity as separate from its owner. What it means is that you may establish your company on the 1st of January,running it as individual ownership just like dangote sugar but the day he take his company to stock exchange for people or outsiders to purchase shares as a listed company becomes day of incorporation. He is no more the sole ownership of the company. But the day of establishment will always be 1st of January of the year the operation started. |

The Established is the day you bring the business into the world then after meeting all the specifications /requirement by CAC your business can now legally be incorperated so you can only have the patents right of your company. |

MadCow1: You still didn't answer his question. @OP, there are some things you may need to query wiki instead of coming to waste time on NL. Year of Incorporation: The year you register the business as a separate legal entity recognized by law. Meaning your business can sue or be sued, is recognized by the government and therefore required by law to pay tax. In Naija's business environment, it's the year you registered your business with the Corporate Affairs Commission. Year of est: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_of_establishment |
