Pentagon Law Associates
Company Registration in Nepal
From OCR filing in Tripureshwor to PAN/VAT setup and post-registration compliance, we guide founders through a clean incorporation process built on Nepalese law.
Company incorporation
Build your business on a proper legal foundation.
Starting a business is more than just an idea. It begins with a compliant incorporation process, and that process starts with the Office of Company Registrar (OCR) in Kathmandu. Pentagon Legal Associates provides end-to-end support so you can focus on growth while we manage the legal steps.
The Company Act, 2063 B.S. is the primary law governing the incorporation, operation, and administration of companies in a simple and transparent way. Chapter 2 of the Act covers incorporation, and we align the process with that framework from the first document onward.
What we do
End-to-end incorporation support
Drafting, Documentation and Filing
We prepare and notarize the application, MOA, AOA, power of attorney, rent agreement, and all filing documents.
Immediate Regulatory Compliance
We coordinate PAN/VAT registration, local-level registration, and other sector-specific approvals after incorporation.
Three-Month Compliance
We help complete OCR post-registration filings within the required time to reduce the risk of penalties.
Type of company
We help you choose the right structure by comparing shareholder requirements, commercial flexibility, and future compliance obligations.
| Type of Company | Minimum Shareholder | Maximum Shareholder |
|---|---|---|
| Private Limited | 1 | 101 |
| Public Limited | 7 | Unlimited |
| Profit Not Distributing | 5 | Unlimited |
