Kebbi’s Gold Belt and Your Jewelry Counter

Kebbi is more than a market for finished jewelry; it sits on a real gold story. The state’s investment promotion agency lists gold and gemstones among its solid minerals, and artisanal gold mining has been reported in LGAs including Fakai, Shanga, Ngaski and Bagudo. In July 2020, a gold bar sourced from artisanal miners working under the PAGMI scheme in Kebbi was presented to then-President Muhammadu Buhari, a moment that put the state’s mining sector in the national spotlight. For a jeweler, that backdrop is a reminder of how much of your trade depends on trust: customers want to know the shop they buy from is a real, traceable business. A CAC certificate gives you that, and it’s the kind of document wholesalers and suppliers commonly ask for before opening an account. Dealing in raw gold or gemstones from miners is a separate, regulated activity handled outside CAC registration, so confirm what applies with the relevant federal ministry before you source directly.

Separate From This Registration

CAC registration establishes your business as a legal name. Beauty and jewelry businesses also answer to other bodies, and these are handled separately:

• NAFDAC registration for cosmetics, skincare and perfumes that you manufacture, import, or package under your own label. Retailers should confirm with NAFDAC what applies to the products they stock.
• Standards compliance (SON) where products or packaging fall under a mandatory standard
• Customs duties and import documentation if you bring in jewelry, cosmetics or beauty equipment from abroad
• Federal Ministry of Mines and Steel Development requirements for buying or trading raw gold and gemstones
• Professional or facility approvals for treatments beyond basic makeup and nail services, where they apply
• Kebbi State or local government permits, shop levies and signage fees, where they apply to your outlet
• Printed copies of your certificate, delivered as a soft copy for you to print locally
• Business bank account opening, done with your bank once the certificate is in hand
• Annual returns in later years, a small separate step we can also help with when it’s due

The Full Breakdown of Your ₦35,500

One payment covers the government filing charge and our service fee together, so nothing extra follows. Here is everything inside it:

• 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

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company

Most beauty and jewelry businesses in Kebbi begin well as a Business Name: one owner, one shop or studio, one clear trading name. If you later open several branches, take on a business partner, or start supplying other retailers at volume, the Limited Liability Company gives you a company structure and a Memorandum and Articles of Association (Memart), and it separates your personal assets from the business. A Business Name can be converted down the road, so choosing it first costs you nothing in flexibility.

Covering All 21 Kebbi LGAs

Price, requirements and turnaround are the same across the state. We register jewelry, cosmetics and makeup businesses in:

• Birnin Kebbi: the state capital, with its concentration of shops and salons
• Kalgo, Bunza, Gwandu and Aleiro: the towns around the capital
• Argungu, Augie, Arewa and Suru: the northern LGAs
• Dandi, Jega, Maiyama and Koko/Besse: busy trading towns in the north-west and centre, including border-market trade at Kamba in Dandi
• Fakai, Shanga, Ngaski and Bagudo: LGAs with reported artisanal gold activity
• Yauri, Zuru, Sakaba and Danko/Wasagu: the southern and south-eastern LGAs

If your business is in any of Kebbi’s 21 LGAs, you’re covered.

Your Clients Trust Your Eye. Give Them a Name They Can Verify.

A good jeweler can tell quality by weight and finish; a good makeup artist reads skin tone in seconds and knows which shade will hold through a long wedding day. Clients pay for that judgment. What they can’t see is the paperwork, and that’s the one part of the business that doesn’t need your eye. Once your certificate arrives, your name is on the public register, you can present proof of registration to suppliers and event planners, and you can set up payments under your business instead of your personal details. Your craft stays yours; the filing is ours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does CAC registration cost for a jewelry, cosmetics or makeup business in Kebbi State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive, the same across all 21 LGAs. A Limited Liability Company is available at ₦65,500 all-inclusive.

What do I get for the ₦35,500? 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 for my beauty or jewelry business? For most solo owners and single-shop operations, yes. It establishes your legal business name and is the main CAC registration you need to start.

Should I choose a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company? A Business Name suits one owner with one shop or studio. The Limited Liability Company is worth considering when you have partners, several branches, or wholesale ambitions.

When should I upgrade to a Limited Liability Company? Usually when you open multiple outlets, take on investors or co-owners, or begin supplying other retailers at volume. We can help with the conversion when you’re ready.

Can one registration cover jewelry, cosmetics and makeup services together? Yes. A single registration covers your business as a whole, and you can describe the nature of business broadly enough to include all of them.

I sell from home, a stall or social media. Can I still register? Yes. You need a business address in Kebbi State, which can be your shop, stall, studio or home address, and you tell us the LGA.

Do I need NAFDAC registration to sell cosmetics? NAFDAC regulates cosmetic products, and registration mainly concerns products you manufacture, import or package under your own label. It is separate from CAC registration. If you only resell products from suppliers, check with NAFDAC what applies to you.

Does a CAC certificate prove my products are genuine or NAFDAC-approved? No. It shows your business is registered. Product approval is handled separately by the relevant regulator.

Can I buy gold directly from miners with a Business Name? Dealing in raw gold is a regulated activity with its own requirements, separate from CAC registration. Confirm what applies with the relevant federal ministry before you source directly.

Will the certificate help me open wholesale supplier accounts? Many suppliers and distributors ask for proof of registration before setting up a trade account, so it often helps.

Can I open a business bank account with the certificate? Yes. It’s one of the main documents banks ask for, alongside your ID and other details.

Do you register businesses outside Birnin Kebbi? Yes. We register businesses in all 21 Kebbi LGAs, at the same price and turnaround.

What if my proposed business name isn’t available? Send a backup name and we’ll check it quickly. Having two or three ready keeps things moving.

Can I convert my Business Name to a Limited Liability Company later? Yes. Many beauty and jewelry businesses start with a Business Name and convert as they grow.

Does registration let me advertise and sell online under my business name? Yes. A registered name gives you something official to use on your page, invoices and payment accounts. Any product-specific approvals still apply separately.

How will I receive my documents? As soft copies on WhatsApp. You can print them locally whenever you need a hard copy.
