The Private Limited Company Registration Certificate is a fundamental corporate document issued under Nigerian law by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC). It is required whenever a new private limited company is incorporated in Nigeria, serving as the primary evidence of the company's legal existence and compliance with the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020. This certificate is essential for opening bank accounts, entering into contracts, dealing with government agencies, and conducting business operations in Nigeria. It includes crucial information such as the company's unique registration number, incorporation date, registered address, and official status as a private company limited by shares. The certificate must be maintained as part of the company's permanent records and is often required for various business transactions, regulatory compliance, and legal proceedings.
