Private Limited Company Registration
The Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) is the most popular business structure in Sri Lanka, offering limited liability, separate legal identity, and credibility with banks, investors, and government agencies.
What Is a Private Limited Company?
A Private Limited Company (Pvt Ltd) in Sri Lanka is a legal entity registered under the Companies Act No. 07 of 2007. It provides shareholders with limited liability protection, meaning personal assets are protected from business debts. It requires a minimum of one director and one shareholder, and shares cannot be publicly traded.
This is the most recommended structure for startups, SMEs, and businesses seeking credibility, access to financing, and legal protection. Ontriq registers Pvt Ltd companies in as fast as 3-5 working days through the electronic Registrar of Companies (eROC) portal.
