The Companies and Other Business Entities Act
Registration is administered under the Companies and Other Business Entities Act. Before you start, decide the business structure that suits your goals, liability exposure and ownership plans.
Typical steps
Common steps include reserving a name, preparing incorporation documents, submitting them to the registry, and then completing tax and other registrations. Exact forms, fees and timelines change, so confirm them with the Registrar and relevant official sources before acting.
After registration
Consider registering with ZIMRA, setting up statutory records, and checking whether your activity requires licences or permits.
