From structure to licence — your business, properly established.
Lighthouse Business Consulting Limited (LHBCL) takes the paperwork out of starting and formalising a business. From choosing the right legal structure to coordinating registrations, licences and statutory documentation, we manage the formation process end to end — so your company is established correctly, completely and without costly delays.
Every filing matters: a wrong entity choice, a missed registration or an incomplete licence pack can hold back operations for months. Our advisors prepare, sequence and follow each submission on your behalf, keeping you informed while the file moves through the system.
Business Structure & Entity Selection Support
The structure you choose shapes everything that follows — liability, taxation, ownership, fundraising and the compliance burden you will carry for years. We explain the realistic options for your situation: sole proprietorship, partnership, private or public limited company, and branch, liaison or subsidiary arrangements for foreign investors. Each option is compared on the criteria that matter to you: protection of personal assets, tax treatment, permitted business activities, foreign ownership rules, capital requirements, board and reporting obligations, and how easily the company can later bring in investors or expand. Working with your legal and tax advisers where needed, we recommend the structure that best fits your plans, document the trade-offs in plain language, and map the registration steps that structure will require.

Forming a company involves a chain of steps that must happen in the right order, with the right documents, at the right offices. We coordinate the whole sequence on your behalf: name search and reservation, drafting the memorandum and articles of association, compiling shareholder and director information, arranging witnesses and notarisation where required, and submitting the incorporation application to the Registrar of Companies or the authority relevant to your structure. Throughout the process you have a single point of contact who tracks the file, follows up with the registry, resolves queries before they become delays, and keeps you informed at every stage — so formation moves as quickly as the system allows, with nothing falling through the cracks.
Output — Coordinated incorporation, end to endBusiness Registration Guidance
Incorporation is only the first registration in a longer sequence. After the certificate of incorporation, most businesses must complete tax registration, VAT or sales tax enrolment, import and export codes where relevant, municipal trade registration, and industry-specific registrations before they may lawfully operate. We prepare a complete registration map for your activities: which authorities are involved, which forms and supporting documents each requires, the correct order of applications, and the realistic timeline for each. We also flag the common pitfalls — mismatched names across documents, missing declarations, expired address proofs — that cause rejections and weeks of delay, and we review every file before submission so your registrations are approved the first time wherever possible.
Output — Complete registration map, correctly sequencedTrade Licence & Regulatory Documentation Support
Licences and permits are the documents that let you actually trade, and each authority has its own requirements. We support the full range: trade licence applications and renewals, sector permits covering environment, health, food safety, transport or professional practice, and the many supporting documents regulators expect — application forms, declarations, board resolutions, site documents, technical drawings, notarised copies and attestations. Our team assembles each pack to the authority's specification, checks it for completeness and consistency, submits it, and manages the correspondence that follows, including responses to queries and inspection scheduling. Renewal dates are entered into a compliance calendar with advance reminders, so a licence is never allowed to lapse simply because a deadline was missed.
Output — Licence & document pack, filed on timeBusiness Licensing Coordination
Many businesses need several licences at once — from different agencies, with approvals that depend on one another. We act as the coordinating office for the whole set: mapping every licence your operations require, sequencing the applications so that no approval is blocked by a missing prerequisite, and preparing and submitting each file to standard. While the applications are in process, we liaise with officials, answer queries, provide supplementary documents and keep each authority moving. You receive consolidated status reporting — what is filed, what is pending, what is needed from your side — through one accountable contact, instead of chasing several offices yourself. The result is a licensing project that finishes sooner, with far less friction.
Output — Every licence tracked to approvalIncorporation Documentation Support
The documents created at incorporation become the legal backbone of the company, and errors made here are expensive to correct later. We support the preparation and review of the full documentation set: memorandum and articles of association, shareholder agreements, board and shareholder resolutions, powers of attorney, director and shareholder declarations and consents, share certificates and the statutory registers the company must maintain from day one. Drafting is matched to your chosen structure and future plans — for example, share classes or reserved matters you may need for investors. Documents are checked for internal consistency, coordinated with notaries where attestation is required, and archived in an orderly corporate record your advisers can rely on for years.
Output — Statutory documents drafted & verifiedBusiness Establishment Advisory
Registration makes a company legal; establishment makes it operational. After incorporation we advise on everything that turns the new entity into a working business: opening corporate bank accounts, setting up tax filing and accounting routines, VAT compliance calendars, employment contracts and HR policies, insurance coverage, premises, utilities and supplier arrangements. We align these steps with your launch plan so the company can trade, hire and invoice without regulatory gaps. And we set the governance rhythm a new company needs — board meetings, minutes, annual returns and statutory filings — scheduled from the outset. The objective is simple: from the first day of operations, your business is compliant, bankable and ready to grow.
