Sole Proprietorship Setup
Trading in your own name, with the registrations that make it official.
A proprietorship is not a separate legal entity — it is you, trading. There is no incorporation as such; what you need is the set of registrations that let you open a current account, raise invoices and be taken seriously.

Common questions
Can I convert to a company later?
Yes. Many businesses start as a proprietorship and incorporate once revenue or investment makes the compliance worthwhile.
