Starting a Business in Tonga: Legal Requirements

What are the steps in starting a business in Tonga?
There are three things that need to be done:
  • company registration (unless conducting business as a sole trader or in partnership),
  • acquisition of a business license, and (if a foreign investor),
  • acquisition of a foreign investment certificate.
All three are done through the Ministry of Commerce, Consumer, Trade Innovation and Labor (MCCTIL).

Please download the Kingdom of Tonga National Investment Policy Statement and the Foreign Investment Act.

How to register a Company?
Registration processes are slightly different for foreign companies than for domestic companies. Detailed information, forms and information about fees can be obtained online on the Registrar of Companies website.
