How to register your company

Today’s article continues with advice and tips about company registrations. How does one go about registering a company? 

1. CHOOSE A COMPANY NAME:  Come up with a unique descriptive name for your business! Make sure you spell it correctly and give more than one name, so that there are several options in case the names are not available. Stay away from trademarks. Try to use a name that’s not too long and will be easy to remember... 
2. CHOOSE THE TYPE OF COMPANY you would like to register as. Have a look at our article “What type of company are you?” http://grovegr.blogspot.com/2012/07/what-type-of-company-are-you.html  for more info.
3. COMPLETE THE RELEVANT APPLICATION FORM. It is a good idea to ask an accountant to assist you with this. A certified copy of your ID document  is also required.
