As a noob to setting up a small business, I have lots of questions.
I am planning to set up a business, so first steps were to find the idea/product, register a PTY and the whole process of tax, accountant and a major to do list.
I scanned the net a bit, looking for people to assist in registering a business, and found prices ranging from R425,00 to R5500,00.
Some offer to register it with a accountant as part of the deal and others through in the entire process like registering with SARS and so forth.

I am actually very confused with all the options.
Anybody has details of a reputable company that can assist? And as nasty as it is to say - budget is an issue.

I have contracts ready to start getting stock, but need the registration first.
I am happy to wait for the odd 21 days, but ideally want to sort this out asap.

I used www.shelfcompany.co.za to setup a Pty (Ltd) for me. They charged R500 and were very efficient.

Yes thank you. I submitted everything to Dylans company, did the payment, now to wait for the approximate 3 week wait for registration. And with xmas coming up, hopefully the system does not go on slow strike.

Yes, this time of year we usually suggest Shelf companies as the registration with CIPC is not always guaranteed, but i got some of our registrations through in 2 weeks, so maybe you are lucky. Trust that it will work out

Hi People.
OK so I registered my own company VIA CIPC.
Got my certificate but I need a share certificate. To say that I got 49% shares in the (PTY) LTD.
