The short answer
Digitalx registers a private company (Pty Ltd) with CIPC for a fixed R990 once-off. That covers the registration itself and your company documents, no hidden add-ons, no surprises.
What's included
- CIPC Pty Ltd registration
- Name reservation
- Registration certificate (CoR14.3) and company documents
- Guidance on your B-BBEE affidavit

Optional extras
Depending on your business you may also want Tax Clearance, VAT registration, PAYE/UIF, Beneficial Ownership filing, Annual Returns or share certificates. We'll advise which you actually need and quote them separately, so you only pay for what applies to you.
