World Bank Group shed light on the five steps, starting with the registration of the company and reserving the name of the company, which takes around 2 days to complete. The next step is to receive an inspection from local authorities, where you inform a number of agencies about the registration of the company and when it is to open. This procedure takes around four days where local authorities communicate fees, guidelines and provisions. Step 3 involves paying the required fees, while step 4 businesses need to then register with the social security office. These two steps take around 2 days to complete. The final step, which takes around a day to complete, involves making a company seal, where a certificate of incorporation of the company, with a letter requesting them to make a company seal, are submitted with the seal maker.
