Frequently Asked Questions
What are the annual compliance obligations for Nigerian companies?
Nigerian companies must file annual returns with the CAC, maintain statutory registers, hold annual general meetings, and comply with tax filing obligations. We provide ongoing compliance support.
What happens if a company fails to comply with CAC requirements?
Non-compliance can result in fines, penalties, and in serious cases, striking off the company from the register. We help businesses get back into compliance and avoid future issues.
Do I need a compliance programme?
For regulated businesses and larger companies, a formal compliance programme is strongly recommended. We design and implement programmes tailored to your industry and risk profile.
