There is no single business structure that suits every founder. The right option depends on ownership, liability, operating model, funding plans, costs and compliance capacity.
Questions to consider
- Will there be one owner or multiple owners?
- Will outside investment be a near-term goal?
- What risks and liabilities come with the activity?
- What ongoing records, filings and professional support can the business maintain?
- Are there sector-specific licences or local registrations to check?
Before filing
Confirm the current eligibility and documentation requirements from the official authority. Gather consistent identity, address, business and ownership information. Confirm all statutory fees separately from professional or consultancy charges.
