Register a New Company (Pty Ltd) | CIPC Services Cape Town

New Company Registration

Start your business journey with a registered Pty Ltd.

Income Tax Number Included

Great news! When we register your company with CIPC, SARS automatically issues an Income Tax Number for your new entity. You do not need to apply for this separately.

Note: Once registered, you must still appoint a Public Officer to activate the tax profile on eFiling (we can help with that too).
