About the Client
Iroha Education Consultancy was established in Lalitpur in 2021 to help Nepali students navigate the complex process of studying abroad. The consultancy specializes in university placements in Japan, Australia, and the UK, providing visa processing, language coaching, and admission guidance. By 2022, Iroha was handling over 200 student applications per cycle but operating as an informal entity, which created barriers to signing formal agreements with foreign universities.
The Challenge
Iroha Education Consultancy was growing rapidly — placing students in international universities — but lacked the formal business structure required by international university partners.
Foreign universities demanded registered legal entities with audited accounts before signing partnership MOUs. The consultancy was collecting student fees through personal accounts, had no VAT registration, and had never filed an income tax return. This informal structure was limiting growth and creating legal exposure for the founders.
Our Approach
Assessed the optimal legal structure for an education consultancy handling international student admissions and cross-border fees
Registered the company as a Private Limited under OCR with MOA and AOA tailored for education service providers
Completed IRD registration including PAN, TAN, and VAT registration for the entity
Designed a student fee management system with separate ledgers for each intake, university, and service type
Prepared and filed the first two annual audited financial statements required by international university partners
Created a tax planning framework to minimize liability while maintaining full compliance with IRD
Our Solution
CCBC completed a full-scope company setup for Iroha — Private Limited registration at OCR, IRD PAN and VAT registration, and preparation of MOA and AOA suitable for an education services company. We designed a student fee tracking system that separates collections by intake, university, and service type, allowing clean financial reporting for each partner institution. A monthly financial reporting structure was implemented, and we prepared the audited annual accounts needed to satisfy international university due diligence requirements. With a fully compliant legal identity, Iroha was able to sign 15 formal university partnerships within its first operating year.
