Incorporate a single member private company with SECP and enjoy limited liability while remaining the sole owner of your business.
A single member company (SMC) is a private company owned by one person. It combines the control of a sole proprietorship with the separate legal identity and limited liability of a company. It is a popular choice for founders, consultants and businesses with one owner who want a more professional structure.
When registering an SMC, the owner also nominates a person who would take over in case of the member’s death or incapacity, together with an alternate nominee. We prepare the documents, file the incorporation with SECP and register the company with FBR.
