What is the minimum capital required?

There is no prescribed minimum authorized capital for a private company under the Companies Act 2017, though the applicant declares a paid-up capital in the incorporation form.

SMC or Private Limited — which should I choose?

A single-member company suits a solo founder wanting limited liability. A private limited company is better where there are 2+ shareholders or investors are anticipated.

Can a foreign national own a Pakistani company?

Yes. Foreign shareholding is permitted, subject to security clearance and specific-sector restrictions. We handle the full foreign-shareholder incorporation process.
