Questions you may have.
Which of FastCAC's tools are free?
The business name generator, CAC name checker, public search, fee calculator, annual returns checker and invoice generator are free, with no signup. The two NIN tools (get your NIN number, get your NIN slip) are paid, from ₦500, because each one checks your face against your NIMC record.
Do I need a FastCAC account to use these tools?
No. Every tool on this page works without creating an account. You can register a business with FastCAC afterward if you want your official certificate sorted too.
Which tool should I start with if I'm registering a new business?
Start with the Business Name Generator to shortlist a name, then run your favorite through the Check Business Name tool to confirm it's available before you apply.
Can I use the invoice generator before my business is registered?
Yes, anyone can use it. That said, invoicing under a registered business name looks more professional and is required to legally charge VAT — FastCAC can register your business in as little as 24 hours.
What other tools are coming soon?
We're building a PAYE calculator, a payslip generator, and a CAC annual returns penalty calculator next. Check back here or follow our blog for updates.
I found a name or finished my invoice — what next?
Ready to make it official? FastCAC can register your business with CAC in as little as 24 hours, one flat fee, complete with your official certificate.
