How to Register a Private Limited Company in Nepal (2025 Complete Guide)

Introduction

Registering a Private Limited (Pvt. Ltd.) company in Nepal is one of the most important steps for any entrepreneur. This guide walks you through the entire process — from name reservation to receiving your certificate.

Why Choose a Pvt. Ltd.?

A Private Limited Company offers several advantages:

• Limited liability — your personal assets are protected
• Separate legal entity — the company can own property, enter contracts
• Investor-friendly — easier to raise funding
• Credibility — banks and clients trust registered companies more

Step-by-Step Registration Process

Step 1: Reserve Your Company Name

Submit your preferred name to the Office of Company Registrar (OCR) for approval. You can suggest 2–3 alternative names in case your first choice is taken.

Step 2: Prepare Required Documents

• Citizenship certificates of all directors and shareholders
• Passport-size photos (recent)
• Address proof (rental agreement or utility bill)
• Proposed Memorandum of Association (MOA)
• Proposed Articles of Association (AOA)

Step 3: File with OCR

Submit all documents to OCR at Tripureshwor, Kathmandu (or through an authorized agent like EasyFiling). EasyFiling handles all filings on your behalf — no trips needed.

Step 4: PAN Registration

After OCR approval, register with the Inland Revenue Department (IRD) for your Permanent Account Number (PAN).

Step 5: Receive Your Certificate

Once all processes are complete, you receive your official Company Registration Certificate.

Timeline

The typical timeline is 15–20 working days from document submission to certificate issuance.
