The Corporate Affairs Commission has announced a fresh review of its service fees, which will take effect from August 1, 2025.
The decision, according to the Commission, was taken after a thorough assessment of current economic conditions, rising operational expenses, and consultations with key stakeholders.
In a public notice released on Tuesday, the Commission explained that the fee adjustment is part of efforts to deliver efficient, technology-driven services that align with the needs of businesses and the Nigerian economy.
âThe Commission wishes to inform the General Public, Esteemed Customers, and all Stakeholders that in the continued efforts to improve its service quality and delivery, it has become necessary to review certain service fees effective the 1st day of August 2025.
âThis decision follows the careful consideration of prevailing economic realities, rising operational costs as well as engagement of critical stakeholders ahead of implementation,â the CAC said.
It added, âThe review is modest, competitive and aligns with our commitment to enhance service delivery through digitalised operations and maintain the integrity of the Nigerian Corporate Registry.â
Reaffirming its dedication to efficiency, the CAC noted that the revised fees are intended to ensure sustainability and continuous improvement in its service delivery.
âWe remain committed to transparency, accountability, and customer satisfaction as we strive to build a more resilient and responsive corporate regulatory environment,â the commission said.
The full list of reviewed fees is accessible on the Commissionâs website: www.cac.gov.ng or directly via this link or https://www.cac.gov.ng/resources/.
According to the CAC, the new development is expected to have implications for business owners, legal practitioners, compliance officers, and stakeholders engaging with the corporate registry for post-incorporation filings and regulatory services.
It was said that the reviewed fee structure affects services offered to companies, limited partnerships, business names, and incorporated trustees.
