Overview of Society Registration
Javid Law Associates provides specialized advisory and registration services for non-profit entities, charitable organizations, and professional associations. Registering a society under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, is a critical step for formalizing your organizational structure, enabling legal status for fundraising, and ensuring transparent governance. Our consultants guide you through the complexities of state-level registration in Pakistan.
Regulatory Framework and Compliance
Societies must adhere to strict regulatory standards regarding their memorandum of association and bylaws. Our firm ensures that your documents meet the rigorous scrutiny of the Registrar of Societies. Following registration, we assist in securing NTN registration with the FBR to ensure your entity remains tax-compliant and eligible for tax exemptions on charitable income.
