Many matters can be handled remotely. Some steps may require original, notarised or legalised documents, or attendance by a representative; we will tell you in advance where that applies.
Coordinated workstreams
One Nigerian legal team across the workstreams your entry needs.
A foreign manufacturer may need a Nigerian company, a NAFDAC registration and a trademark filing. A gaming operator may need an entity, a regulatory application, platform agreements and brand protection. We coordinate these as one engagement, so the pieces are sequenced and consistent.
