What Is Company Registration in Pakistan?
Company registration in Pakistan is the legal process of incorporating a business entity under the Companies Act 2017 through the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP). Upon successful registration, SECP issues a Certificate of Incorporation — making your business a separate legal entity with its own rights, liabilities, and tax identity. A registered company can open corporate bank accounts, enter contracts, hire employees, attract investors, and operate with full legal protection. Registration is done online via SECP eServices (eZfile/LEAP) portal and typically takes 2–5 working days with correct documentation.
