As a leading law firm in Nigeria, we provide with all the needed help with the business permit and Expatriate Quota application in Nigeria. Registered company wholly owned by foreign nationals is required to obtain a business permit from the Ministry of Interiors before it can commence a business operation in Nigeria. Apart from obtainment of business permit, every foreigner who is seeking to work in Nigeria as a worker or control any business must only do so through the company upon making an application for expatriate quota in Nigeria.

As of practice, the application for a business permit is always made together with the application for expatriate quota in Nigeria. While business permit grants a foreign-owned or controlled company an authority to commence a business in Nigeria, the expatriate quota is the approval for individual foreign employee or director(s) of the firm to work in Nigeria.

As such, when the expatriate leaves the company, the position reverts to the sponsor company and the company may place another expatriate in the same position for as long as the quota position remains valid.

Our team of immigration lawyers will complete all needed requirements, answer all your queries so that your employees can enjoy a smooth transition to resume working activities in Nigeria.

We are happy to help you throughout the process at Adeola Oyinlade & Co.

Setting up a company in Nigeria is inexpensive compared to the cost of establishing a company in other jurisdictions. Additionally, legal requirements for starting a business in Nigeria are not too complex because of our expertise and experience over a decade. Every foreign entity seeking to navigate a path to successful business setup in Nigeria must also comply with the following requirements for a proper business setup:

The first step to take for any individual or investor seeking to start a business in Nigeria is to register a company. There are different types of company that can be registered in Nigeria, but the most suitable and recommended type of company for private individuals or organizations is the private limited liability company. The requirements for company registration in Nigeria for foreigners are slightly different from similar requirements for the citizens. A foreigner or foreign company registering in Nigeria must register a company with a minimum of N100, 000,000 (One Hundred Million Naira) authorized share capital. Most foreigners often want to know whether they are required to pay the N100,000,000 to any bank or government agency at the time of registration? The simple answer to that is No! The Nigerian’s company law does not mandate that this capital be paid up at the point of registration. The shareholders or the company’s subscribers can pay the capital or part of it to their company’s bank account after the entire business setup process is completed. However, it is a general requirement of law that every new company in Nigeria must be composed of a minimum of 2 directors and 2 shareholders. A foreign entity registering in Nigeria, which does not have the required two people to act as directors may appoint a nominee director(s) who is a Nigeria citizen for the purpose of meeting up with statutory requirements among other purposes. The company registration in Nigeria is governed by the Companies and Allied Matters Act LFN 1990 and the government agency in charge of company registration is the Corporate Affairs Commission.

Once the incorporation is done, we would advice on the issues of tax registration, business permits and expatriate quota, Nigeria Residency permit. We are in a position to provide secretarial services and other statutory and compliance requirements.

Our team of lawyers will complete all needed requirements, answer all your queries so that you can enjoy a smooth company registration/set up in Nigeria.
