Common questions
Who should register a PBC?
Owner-run businesses, family businesses and sole traders who want the protection of a registered entity with lighter admin than a company.
Can a PBC become a Private Limited Company later?
Yes. A PBC can be converted to a company when the business grows or needs to bring in shareholders. We handle conversions too.
Can I tender with a PBC?
Many buyers accept PBCs. Some tenders specifically require a Private Limited Company — check the tender document, or send it to us and we’ll advise.
Do PBCs file annual returns?
Every registered entity has ongoing obligations with the Registrar. We’ll explain what applies to your PBC and can handle the filings for you.
