How to Register an OPC in the Philippines
All OPC filings are coursed through the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Broadly speaking, there are three steps to register an OPC:
- Reserve a business name online
- Prepare documents and legal requirements.
- Send your requirements to the SEC’s Company Registration and Monitoring Department in person.
The Perks of Setting Up an OPC
Since its introduction in 2019, the One Person Corporation is a convenient option for many entrepreneurs and companies in the Philippines.
Here are the main advantages of this corporate structure:
- The assets and bills of the business stay separate from those of the business owner.
- As the name suggests, the business is a separate juridical entity, so there’s a degree of limited liability.
- There is no need for a board of directors to be involved in an OPC. This gives the business owner full ownership over the company.
