Company Registration in Iran

Overview

Company formation is not only a filing exercise. The selected legal form, shareholder structure, directors, registered activities and wording of the constitutional documents can affect later contracts, licensing, banking, taxation and changes. Arman Sabt begins by identifying the business objective and then maps the administrative steps required for that particular matter.

What we review before filing

• Suitable company type for the intended activity
• Shareholders, directors and authorised signatories
• Registered address, capital and business scope
• Possible sector-specific approvals or licences
• Name options and consistency of identity documents

Typical process

1. Initial fact and objective review
2. Document and eligibility check
3. Preparation and filing through the relevant official process
4. Follow-up on notices, corrections and final delivery

Documents commonly requested

Identification documents for individuals; corporate documents for entity shareholders; proposed names; address information; intended business activities; and powers of attorney or translated/legalised documents where applicable.

Important practical points

Availability of a company name, acceptance of activities and additional approvals are determined by the relevant authorities. The exact document set may change according to the legal form and whether any shareholder or director is a foreign person or entity.
