What’s Included in the ₦35,500

We handle the full Business Name registration for CCTV and safety installation businesses in Gombe State for ₦35,500 all-inclusive, covering the government filing fee and our service fee together — the option that fits most independent installers and small safety-equipment supply outfits starting out, giving you a properly registered business without the extra structure many don’t yet need (a Limited Liability Company registration is also available at ₦65,500 all-inclusive, worth considering once you’re taking on institutional or corporate installation contracts).

• Business name availability search
• Business name reservation
• Completion and submission of the CAC Business Name application
• CAC government filing/processing fee
• Your Certificate of Registration (soft copy)
• Tax Identification Number (TIN)
• A CAC Status Report confirming your business is active on the public register

There’s no extra step hiding behind this: message us your business name, and we take it from there.

What’s Not Usually Included

• Physical/printed copies of your certificate (delivered as soft copy; you print locally whenever convenient)
• NSCDC licensing under the Private Guard Companies Act, if your business also deploys human security guards alongside your CCTV and alarm installations
• Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) compliance for imported CCTV cameras, DVRs/NVRs and related electronic equipment
• National Communications Commission (NCC) type-approval for wireless alarm transmitters, GSM-based alarm dialers or any equipment that transmits over radio frequency
• Electrical wiring and installation compliance where your work involves fixed wiring in client buildings
• Business bank account opening, done with your chosen bank once your certificate is in hand
• Annual returns filing in future years — a small, separate step we can also help with when the time comes

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost

For most CCTV and safety installation businesses in Gombe State, a Business Name covers what’s needed to bid for residential and small commercial jobs under a properly registered name. Once you’re handling institutional contracts, larger multi-site deployments, or bringing on investors, the Limited Liability Company structure tends to fit better — it separates your personal assets from the business. You can start with a Business Name and convert later.

Gombe’s Own Push Toward Technology-Driven Security

Gombe State has been unusually deliberate about building out its security architecture in recent years — creating the state’s first Ministry of Internal Security and Internal Affairs, standing up the Gombe State Security, Traffic and Environmental Corps (GOSTEC), and launching the joint inter-agency task force Operation Hattara with logistics support from the state government. At the state’s inaugural Peace and Security Summit, the Inspector General of Police specifically framed the moment around deepening community partnership and technology-driven, intelligence-based policing as the direction the state is moving. For a CCTV and safety installation business, that’s a meaningful signal: a state government actively investing in security coordination and openly pointing toward technology as part of the answer is the kind of environment where demand for properly installed surveillance and access-control systems — in homes, shops, schools and estates — tends to follow.

You Handle the Cameras and Wiring — Let a Registered Name Back the Business

Running a CCTV and safety installation business means knowing your equipment, wiring it correctly, and being someone clients trust to keep their homes, shops and offices secure. CAC registration is the comparatively simple part, and it’s worth getting settled early: it’s the document that lets you bid for estate, school and corporate installation contracts formally, under a properly recognised business name.

2. A valid means of ID — National ID (NIN), international passport, or driver’s license
3. A passport photograph
4. Your business address in Gombe State — indicating the LGA
5. Phone number and email address
6. Nature of business — described simply, e.g. “CCTV installation and supply,” “alarm and access control installation,” or “safety and security equipment trading”

Nothing here needs advance preparation. Send it across on WhatsApp whenever convenient, and we’ll match it to CAC’s requirements.

Step-by-Step: How Little This Actually Takes

1. Check name availability on CAC’s public search portal — handled on our end.
2. Reserve the name once availability is confirmed.
3. Complete the application with your business, director and Gombe State address details.

6. Receive your Certificate of Registration, TIN and Status Report, usually within 5–7 working days.

That’s genuinely the whole process from your side: one message, one payment, one certificate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does CAC registration cost for a CCTV/safety business in Gombe State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive, the same across all 11 LGAs. A Limited Liability Company registration is also available for ₦65,500 all-inclusive.

What do I actually get for the ₦35,500? Your name search and reservation, the completed CAC filing, the government processing fee, your Certificate of Registration, a Tax Identification Number, and a CAC Status Report confirming you’re active on the public register.

Is a Business Name enough to run a CCTV installation business? Yes — for most independent installers and small safety-equipment suppliers, a Business Name establishes your legal business name and is the main registration you need to start.

Should I register as a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company? A Business Name suits most independent installers starting out. If you’re taking on institutional or corporate contracts, the Limited Liability Company route is worth considering.

When should I upgrade to a Limited Liability Company? Usually once you’re handling larger multi-site contracts, expanding your team, or an investor or corporate client specifically requires it.

Can I register CCTV installation, alarm systems and security equipment sales under one business name? Yes — a single registration covers your business as a whole. You can describe your nature of business broadly enough to include several, for example CCTV installation and security equipment trading.

I install on a small scale — can I still register? Yes — small and large safety businesses register the same way. You just need a business address in Gombe State, which can be your shop or office location.

Do I need NSCDC licensing to run a CCTV business? It depends — NSCDC licensing under the Private Guard Companies Act applies if you also deploy human security guards alongside your equipment installations; pure equipment supply and installation typically doesn’t require it.

Do I need SON approval for the CCTV equipment I import or sell? Yes — Standards Organisation of Nigeria compliance for imported electronic security equipment is separate from CAC registration.

What about NCC approval for wireless alarms? Yes — National Communications Commission type-approval applies to equipment that transmits over radio frequency, such as GSM-based alarm dialers or wireless transmitters, and is separate from CAC registration.

Will this certificate help me bid for estate and corporate installation contracts? Many estates, schools and corporate clients ask for proof of business registration before awarding installation contracts, so a CAC certificate is often the first document that opens that door.

Can I open a business bank account with the certificate? Yes — a CAC certificate is one of the main documents banks ask for when opening a business account, alongside your ID and other details.

Do you register businesses outside Gombe town? Yes — we register CCTV and safety businesses in all 11 Gombe State LGAs, at the same price and turnaround time.

How long does registration take? Typically 5–7 working days, with nothing further required from you once you’ve sent your details.

What if my proposed business name isn’t available? Just send a backup name and we’ll check it right away. Having two or three ready in advance keeps things moving smoothly.

Does registering protect my business’s brand name or logo? No — CAC registration protects your business name from being taken by someone else at CAC, but trademark protection for a logo or brand is a separate process.

Do I need an accredited agent to register? It certainly makes things easier — we handle every detail so you don’t have to learn CAC’s process yourself. We’re a CAC-accredited agent, and we take care of your entire registration from name search through certificate delivery.
