How to register a single shareholder company in Nepal
Nepal allows a private limited company with a single shareholder. The process is largely the same as for several shareholders, but the documents are worded differently.
How it differs from a multiple-shareholder company
- All shares sit with one person, so the share allocation is simple
- The articles handle general meetings and quorum differently
- The general meeting minute is written as a single person’s decision
- The Section 92 director disclosure lists one or very few names
Documents needed
- Memorandum of Association in single-shareholder form
- Articles of Association in single-shareholder form
- Shareholder’s citizenship copy and photograph
- Proof of registered address
- CAMIS registration application
Worth knowing
A single-shareholder company still appoints directors and still owes an annual update. Treating it as informal because there is only one owner is how fines happen.
Adding a shareholder later means a share transfer or a change in capital structure, each with its own documents.
