SEC Registration

Complete assistance registering your corporation or partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission, from documents to approval.

What It Is / Who Needs It

Any business planning to operate as a corporation or partnership in the Philippines rather than as a sole proprietorship must register with the Securities and Exchange Commission before it has any legal standing to operate, issue shares, or enter contracts as a company. Registration is processed through SEC's online eSPARC platform, which covers domestic stock and non-stock corporations, One Person Corporations (OPCs), and partnerships.

5,000

Domestic stock corporations require a minimum authorized capital of ₱5,000, with at least 25% of subscribed capital deposited in a bank before registration can proceed. Until your SEC certificate is issued, your business has no separate legal personality meaning it can't lawfully sign contracts, open a corporate bank account, or issue shares in its own name. Getting this step right from the start avoids costly delays and re-filings down the line.
