Do you know how to process a Change of Business Name?
A client came into my DM recently to ask exactly that.
In my usual polite manner, I replied, "Yes, of course! That is one of the many reasons Sarahzlegal is here to serve you."
We help businesses with CAC registrations, Post CAC registrations, Business Name changes, Company compliance, Trademark registration, and other legal compliance services in Nigeria.
He replied, "Fantastic! What's the cost and what's the procedure?"
I explained that a Change of Business Name is a Post CAC Registration service processed through an accredited CAC agent portal. I also let him know that if his business was due for CAC Annual Returns filing and he hadn't been filing, we might need to regularize that first. So, I asked him to send me the company details so I could assess the status.
A few minutes after sending the documents, he asked,
"Is it possible for me to do it myself?"
I said, "Of course. If you know your way around the CAC portal, there's nothing stopping you from doing it yourself."
He went silent for a few minutes...
Then he sent me a screenshot and asked,
"What does Availability Code mean, and how do I get that code on the Post Incorporation page?" π€
Hmmm...
People of God... should I still go ahead and teach him the entire process?
Should I start giving away years of craftsmanship and practical experience to someone who is neither a lawyer nor an accredited CAC professional? π
Well... I'm not feeling that generous in that area.
What do you think? π
Anyway, if you need an expert who truly knows her onions when it comes to CAC Registration, Post CAC Registration services, Business Name Change, Company Compliance, Annual Returns Filing, Trademark Registration, and other Corporate Legal Services in Nigeria, has got you covered.
You're only a DM away.
