Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does business registration take in Pakistan?
A company can be registered with SECP in 1-3 days online. NTN takes 2-5 days. Other registrations vary. CLA processes all registrations concurrently to minimise your total setup time.
What documents do I need to register a business?
Requirements vary by business type but typically include CNICs of directors/owners, proposed company name, registered address, and business activity details. CLA provides a complete document checklist specific to your situation.
Do I need to register for sales tax?
Sales tax registration is mandatory for businesses exceeding the annual turnover threshold set by FBR, and for certain categories regardless of turnover. CLA will advise if and when your business needs STRN.
Can CLA open a corporate bank account on my behalf?
We prepare all documentation required by the bank and can accompany you to the bank visit. Most Pakistani banks require in-person attendance by directors for final account opening.
