Online Business Registration is the new unified business registration procedure that is fully online and utilizes an IT platform.

The previous registration procedure requires you to register your business at different ministries/institutions through different methods (electronically, semi-electronically and physically). Electronic registration system of each ministry/institution is monolithic, thus unable to neither communicate nor safely exchange data with one another. In such a fashion, you would be required to fill out the same information on forms of different ministries/institutions.

You can now register your business at Ministry of Commerce, General Department of Taxation and Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training in one go using this new online business registration platform (also known as Single Portal). In the current phase, if your business is required to register at ministries/institutions other than Ministry of Commerce, General Department of Taxation and Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, you may need to follow the same procedures of the relevant ministries/institutions. Through this new procedure, a business registration can take up to only 8 working days until one can obtain a decision and cost much less than the previous procedure. You may also pay for the registration services online using ABA Pay if you are an ABA Bank customer or credit/debit card if you are a customer of other banks. Upon approval of the registration, you will receive digital licenses/certificates via our platform.

The benefits are:

1. Wait for approval for a maximum of 8 working days;
2. Eliminate the provision of repetitive information;
3. Spend much less;
4. Register and pay online for all services at once; and
5. Obtain digital licenses and certificates via the system.

1. Create personal identity for your business;
2. Avoid fines and business closure;
3. Receive legal protection;
4. Attract corporate customers because no corporate company wants to do business with unregistered business;
5. Ease your access to bank loan and investment;
6. Get benefits for your employees from the National Social Security Fund; and
7. Fulfill your obligation as a citizen under Cambodian laws and regulations. 

At this stage, only Ministry of Commerce, General Department of Taxation, Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, Ministry of Interior, Council of Development of Cambodia and Ministry of Economy and Finance are involved. The remaining relevant institutions will be involved in later stages.

No, not in the entire process. This new system focuses on better user experieces that allow you to apply and register business online by yourself. 

In any case, if you need assistance, you may find a representative to do it on your behalf with your authorization. Currently, there are accredited agents handling business registration recognized by Ministry of Commerce and tax registration recognized by General Department of Taxation during the previous registration mechanism. However, they are not trained and accredited for the new system.

We do not have a physical office you can visit, but you can ask for help through: 

• General Information and Technical Issues: Facebook page, Live Chat, Email and hotline number 081888296 (Extension 1)
• Ministry of Commerce: Hotline number 081888296 (Extension 2)
• General Department of Taxation: Hotline number 081888296 (Extension 3) or 1277
• Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training: Hotline number 081888296 (Extension 4)

Small, medium and large taxpayers are eligible to apply on the online portal. Your business must also be a new business that has never been registered at the Ministry of Commerce, the General Department of Taxation and the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training.
