Full guide to business registration in Jamaica. Running a business in Jamaica can be a good choice for those who wish to relocate to Jamaica and indeed, Jamaica is one of the easiest countries to register a business. In this episode I travel to Kingston to meet the representatives of the Companies Office of Jamaica to discuss the very first steps every entrepreneur needs to take and discuss how to start a company in Jamaica.

Charity organizations don't pay these customs fees. Individuals who wish to bring items to donate should do so via Jamaican charity organizations. (At least this is what I think is the case, I will be checking this information when doing video on charity)

@@JAMAICAWITHIRIEyou are correct. Persons who are donating to charity, needs to be a charity organization and sign with the department of cooperative and friendly society. Once the organization is approved, a letter should be sent to customs. Once approval is granted by customs, the applicable duties are waived.

A lot of people are still on the old system and reluctant to try. Jamaica needs to provide free computer access to the rural areas. Also, Adult 101 free computer classes and Jamaicans may not like the option of paying taxes. Maybe so many food stations on the street selling cook food. No tax

This is such a very helpful video if someone wants to Start a Company / Business in Jamaica; and it's great to see that Jamaica makes it easy to REGISTER. But as noted, "starting" a Business doesn't mean just "anybody" can start "making money" from it...at least, not per the LEGAL Process. So many people are under the impression that they can just go down to Jamaica and start a Business and GET PAID from it, without having a Work Permit...unless they ARE Jamaicans. I'm glad this video makes that clear. I Love ALL your videos; but I especially love the ones where you let the Jamaican "Experts Tell the Story", such as this one. Very Awesome
