🚨 Don’t Keep Running Your Business Without Checking Your CAC Status.
Is your company still ACTIVE with CAC—or has it become INACTIVE?
Don’t assume. Check your status first.
If your status is INACTIVE, take action before it creates problems for your business.

CAC Status: ● INACTIVE — This could be YOUR business right now
The moment your registered business turns 1 year old, the CAC immediately flags your status as INACTIVE — unless you have filed your Annual Returns.
Most business owners have no idea this is happening. Meanwhile, penalties are growing every single day — and your access to contracts, loans, and bank services is quietly being cut off.
Under the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020, every company registered in Nigeria — whether a Business Name, LLC, or NGO — is legally required to file Annual Returns with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) every single year.
This is not optional. It is not a suggestion. It is the law.
📌 If your business registered in 2023 and you have not filed Annual Returns for that year — your company is INACTIVE on the CAC register right now.
INACTIVE does not mean your business is closed. It means the government does not recognise your company as a functioning legal entity. And the consequences are already happening — whether you can see them or not.
The worst part? Most business owners only discover this when they are about to sign a contract, apply for a loan, or open a bank account — and get rejected. By that point, the penalties have already accumulated into a painful sum.
