– Names of any other place where business is carried on
– Date of partners joining the firm
– Full name and permanent address of partners.
– Duration of the firm

• Every partner needs to verify and sign the application

• Ensure that the following documents and prescribed fees are enclosed with the registration application :

– Application for Registration in the prescribed Form - I
– Duly filled affidavit as per specimen
– Certified copy of the Partnership deed
– Proof of ownership of the place of business or the rental/lease agreement thereof

It may be noted here that the name of your partnership firm should not “contain any words which may express or imply the approval or patronage of the government except where the government has given its written consent for the use of such words as part of the firm’s name”.

Once the Registrar of Firms is satisfied that the application procedure has been duly complied with, he shall record an entry of the statement in the Register of Firms and issue a Certificate of Registration.
