What is a shelf company in Zimbabwe?

A shelf company is a already registered company that has gone through the whole process of company registration in Zimbabwe. It was created and left with no activity – metaphorically put on the “shelf” to “age”. The company can then be sold to a person or group of persons who wish to start a company without going through the sometimes complicated and timeous procedure of company registration in Zimbabwe.

What are the advantages of a shelf company?

A shelf company saves time involved in taking the steps to register a new company. Company registration in Zimbabwe usually takes 9-12 working days whereas shelf company registration takes less than 24 working hours. You will also gain the opportunity to bid on contracts and tenders. Some tenders for example for security services might require a company that has been trading for more than 5 years.

A shelf company also shows corporate longevity in order to attract customers and/or investors and it makes it easy to gain access to corporate credit. With so many unproffessional and uregistered consultants, it might be safer to aquire a shelf than registering a new company to avoid being duped.

Why should I buy your shelf companies?

Our shelf companies are genuine, have never traded and have been declared as shelf companies with the Deeds, Companies and Intellectual Property (DCIP). They also come with a complete set of documents i.e. Certificate of Incorporation, Mememorandum & Articles of Association, CR 5, CR 6, Share Certificates, Share Transfer Certificates, and many more extras. We will also do all the amendments to the CR 5 and CR 6 and, we also guarantee to buy back your company within 12 months if you do not trade with it.

What company type are your shelf companies?

Our shelf companies are legally registered Private Limited Companies (PLC’s). Private Limited Companies are the standard limited company business structure for any company which has been formed with the intention of generating profit for the owners (shareholders) of the business. It is remarkably popular because it allows the sharing of profits amongst the shareholders whilst also offering restricted financial liability. The shareholders are only responsible for company debts up to the value of the shares they hold in the company. So their personal assets will be protected, should the company encounter any financial difficulties.

What is included in our shelf companies?

Our shelf companies include all the official company documents plus a lot of extras including the following:

1. Certificate of Incorporation
2. CR 5
3. CR 6
4. Memorandum and articles of association
5. Share certificates for every shareholder

Do your shelf companies come with a Tax Clearance?

No, all shelf companies do not come with a tax clearance. Once a company acquires a tax clearance it ceases to be a shelf company because it is regarded as it has already traded. We can however assist you with aquiring a tax clearance for an additional fee of US$100.00.

What should I take note of when buying a shelf?

As shelfcompanies.co.zw we gurantee you that our shelf companies are genuine and have never traded. However, as a buyer there might be need of some due dilgence. As a buyer you should take note of the following:

1. Ensure that all documents are genuine by conducting a file search at the Companies Office.
2. Shares must be transfered from the subscribers to the buyers.
3. The seller must surrender all documents pertaining to the company (original documents).
4. All statutory returns which became due before the company was sold must be updated by the seller.
5. The person or firm which registered the company must submit the first CR6 forms changing directors and secretary.
6. Always deal with professionals e.g. shelfcompanies.co.zw
