Key points
Ordinary business registration begins with eligibility and the choice of legal structure. An existing overseas enterprise should use the foreign-business guidance, while an investment fund considering a variable capital company should follow the VCC route. These are different starting points, not interchangeable application forms.
Planning your next steps
The directory also links to corporate service provider, registered qualified individual, public accountant and public accounting entity registration. Use the relevant linked topic to check its detailed conditions before applying. As a practical first step, identify whether you are registering an operating entity, a fund or a professional status; this overview itself does not establish eligibility.
