What’s Included in the ₦35,500

The full Business Name registration for furniture, upholstery and carpentry businesses in Kebbi State costs ₦35,500 all-inclusive. That covers the government filing fee and our service fee in one payment. It suits most workshop owners, upholsterers and furniture sellers who are starting out, and it gives you a properly registered business without the extra structure many don’t need yet. A Limited Liability Company is also available at ₦65,500 all-inclusive. It is worth considering once you employ a larger team, take on bulk institutional orders, or bring in partners.

• 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

What’s Not Usually Included

• Physical/printed copies of your certificate (sent as a soft copy, and you print locally whenever you like)
• Timber sourcing or felling permits from the relevant state forestry or environment authorities, where they apply to how you obtain wood
• Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) requirements, where they apply to products such as foam, mattresses or finished furniture
• Customs clearance and import duties, if you bring in foam, fabric, hardware or fittings from abroad
• Registration with any government or institutional procurement portal, which is a separate step from CAC registration
• Fire-safety and workshop-premises compliance for sawing, finishing and spray areas
• Business bank account opening, done with your chosen bank once the certificate is in hand
• Annual returns filing in later years, a small separate step we can also help with when it’s due

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost

For most furniture and carpentry businesses in Kebbi, a Business Name gives you a legal trading name for sales, quotations and receipts. If you later take on larger orders, hire a bigger crew or add partners, the Limited Liability Company structure keeps your personal assets separate from the business. Starting with a Business Name and converting later is a common path.

Want the Limited Liability Company straight away? For ₦65,500 all-inclusive you get everything above plus your Memorandum and Articles of Association (Memart) and personal liability protection.

Why Kebbi’s Classroom Furniture Drive Matters to Local Workshops

Kebbi State is putting a lot of money into furnishing its schools. In February 2026, Governor Nasir Idris flagged off the distribution of 12,779 pieces of classroom furniture at Emir Haruna Rasheed College in Birnin Kebbi. He directed that the furniture be shared equally between the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education and the Universal Basic Education Board. He also said more would be procured. This followed a 2025 state budget line of ₦6.5 billion for school renovation and the supply of furniture. Government spending of this kind shows how steady the demand for desks, chairs and teachers’ tables is across the state. We can’t promise any workshop a contract. What we can say is that when institutions, schools and larger buyers deal with suppliers, proof of a registered business is usually the first thing they ask for. A CAC certificate puts your workshop in a position to be considered, rather than overlooked for lack of paperwork.

You Know the Wood. We’ll Handle the Paperwork

Anyone who works with furniture knows the skills that can’t be rushed: reading grain before a cut, getting a joint tight, choosing foam density that won’t sag in a year, and finishing fabric so the seams hold. Those are the things your customers pay for. Registration involves none of that craft. It is simply the document that lets a buyer, a bank or a supplier see your workshop under a name that is formally yours. Getting it settled early means the paperwork is already done when a bigger order comes in.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

What exactly do I 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 for a workshop or showroom? For most carpenters, upholsterers and furniture sellers, yes. It gives you a legal trading name and is the main registration needed to start.

When should I move to a Limited Liability Company? Usually when you are taking larger orders, employing a bigger team, working with partners, or when a buyer or investor specifically asks for it.

Can I register upholstery and carpentry under one name? Yes. One registration covers the business as a whole, and you can describe your nature of business broadly enough to include both.

I work from a small roadside workshop. Can I still register? Yes. Small and large workshops register the same way. You only need a business address in Kebbi State, which can be your workshop, shop or storage space.

Do I need a permit to source timber? It depends on how you get your wood. If you fell or transport timber yourself, permits from the relevant state authorities may apply. These are separate from CAC registration and worth checking with the issuing office.

Will a CAC certificate help me supply schools, offices or institutions? Buyers of this kind generally want proof of registration before dealing with a supplier, so the certificate is often the first document they ask for. Some also require their own supplier registration, which is a separate process.

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 Birnin Kebbi? Yes. We register furniture and carpentry businesses in all 21 Kebbi LGAs, at the same price and turnaround time.

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

Can I convert my Business Name to a Limited Liability Company later? Yes. Many workshops start with a Business Name and convert as orders and teams grow, and we can assist with the conversion when the time comes.
