FG launches portal on business registration 

 

 

 

“Nigerians will no longer have to incur other extra costs and inconveniences to travel to the Commission’s office to register and wait for a long period before they register their businesses.
“This will no doubt bring down the cost and the time of setting up businesses significantly in Nigeria.”

The minister said the new CAC on-line registration software, called CRP/GSP, which is under the auspices of the government service portal, it is the first time Nigeria will have an on-line electronic registration system.

Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr. Olusegun Aganda, who launched the Corporate Affairs Commission[CAC] on-line registration platform in Abuja, said the portal would significantly reduce the time and cost for business registration in Nigeria.

“It is gratifying to note that the new software is robust enough to accommodate all e-payment platforms such as inter-switch, e-transact, visa card, master card, verve card, American express and other forms of electronic payment.
“With the new application, customers can access and pay for the Commission’s services on-line. Also, Customers other than accredited agents/professionals can carry out their own transactions directly with the Commission.
