Botswana business portal walkthroughs
These walkthroughs start from the public portal guidance. Use them to prepare your paperwork, then follow the prompts and conditions for your own application.
Register with CIPA OBRS
Use CIPA to find the online registration route. Confirm the entity type and any name reservation required. Get the proposed name and the entity and owner details ready before opening the application. Review the displayed charges before paying. When the filing is complete, save the receipt and any certificate or extract issued. If a name or detail is rejected, read the portal’s feedback and correct the affected field before retrying. Check CIPA’s published OBRS fee schedule.
Set up your PPRA supplier profile
Open PPRA’s IPMS portal and identify the supplier or contractor service you need. Check that your registration details match your entity records. Read the procurement notice separately for the required category, documents, deadlines and submission route. If a document or category is questioned, use the portal’s official support route and keep the query reference. A supplier profile and a tender submission are separate steps.
Prepare a CEDA application
Check the product that fits your activity and the current document requirements. For Chema Chema, use CEDA’s published eligibility and application instructions. Separate startup purchases from working capital in your budget and attach the evidence the product requests. Save the submission reference and the exact list of documents supplied. If the portal asks for another document, check the product requirements and use CEDA’s official route for clarification.
