Question 1

Do you assist clients in Tembisa?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Leoni Naude Inc Attorneys assists clients in Tembisa and the wider Gauteng area with company registration. Tembisa is one of Gauteng's largest townships and forms part of the Ekurhuleni Metro, with a large and growing community. Our Benoni offices and online booking system make legal help genuinely accessible for Tembisa families.

Question 2

What do I need to register a company?

Accepted Answer

You generally need the proposed company name, the identity documents and personal details of all directors and incorporators, and the address of the registered office. Under the Companies Act 71 of 2008, a private company (Pty Ltd) requires at least one director and one incorporator, who may be the same person. We guide you through every requirement so your registration is done correctly from the start.

Question 3

What type of company should I register?

Accepted Answer

Most small and medium businesses register as a private company (Pty Ltd) under the Companies Act 71 of 2008. This gives you a separate legal personality, limits your personal liability, and is straightforward to administer. We explain the options at your consultation so you register the right structure for your plans.

Question 4

Do you help with shareholder agreements?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Companies Act 71 of 2008 allows shareholders to regulate their relationship through a shareholders agreement. We draft clear, practical shareholder agreements that cover voting rights, profit sharing, what happens if a shareholder wants to exit, and how disputes are resolved — so the ground rules are set before any disagreement arises.

Question 5

How long does company registration take?

Accepted Answer

CIPC registration typically takes a few business days once all information is submitted correctly. We handle the process on your behalf and keep you updated, so you can focus on getting your business ready to trade.

Question 6

Do I need a registered office address for my company?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Under the Companies Act 71 of 2008 every company must have a registered office address in South Africa to which documents and notices can be delivered. This does not have to be a commercial office — it can be a residential address. We advise you on the requirements at your consultation.

Question 7

What other documents do I need after registration?

Accepted Answer

After registration you receive your company's Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI) and Certificate of Incorporation. Depending on your business, you may also need a tax registration number from SARS, VAT registration if your turnover warrants it, and sector-specific licences. We advise you on the next steps relevant to your business.
