Business Registration • Pakistan
ADL Law Associates registers Associations of Persons (AOPs) and partnership firms in Pakistan — drafting your partnership deed, obtaining the AOP NTN from the FBR, and registering the firm with the Registrar of Firms. We set your partnership up correctly so profit-sharing, liability and tax are clear from day one.
A partnership or AOP is quick and simple to set up, while a private limited company offers limited liability and a separate legal identity. The right choice depends on your risk, funding and growth plans. See our business structure comparison, or if you already want a company, our SECP company registration service.
Established in 2008, ADL Law Associates handles business registration and the tax that follows — from income tax filing to sales tax — so your firm has one team from formation onward.
An Association of Persons (AOP) is two or more persons carrying on a business together. For tax purposes the AOP is treated as a single unit and files its own return, separate from the partners.
A partnership firm is registered under the Partnership Act with the Registrar of Firms, while AOP is the tax status the business holds with the FBR. In practice a registered partnership is usually taxed as an AOP, and we set up both correctly.
Yes. A properly drafted partnership deed sets out capital, profit-sharing, roles and exit terms, and is required for registration and for opening a business bank account. We draft it for you.
An AOP is taxed as a unit at the rates applicable to AOPs, and the partners are treated according to the law on their shares. We handle the return so it is filed correctly.
Yes. Many businesses start as a partnership and later incorporate. We handle the transition to a private limited company with SECP when you are ready.
Usually the partners CNICs, the proposed business name and activity, the business address, and your capital and profit-sharing terms. We guide you through the rest.
