Apostille Corporate Resolutions and Certificates of Incumbency
Corporate resolutions and certificates of incumbency are key documents for international business transactions. When used abroad — to open a bank account, register a branch, or authorize a representative — they must be notarized and apostilled.
What Is a Corporate Resolution?
A corporate resolution is a formal decision made by a company's board of directors or members, typically authorizing a specific action such as opening a foreign bank account, entering into a contract, or registering a branch abroad. Foreign institutions require the resolution to be notarized and apostilled to verify its authenticity.
What Is a Certificate of Incumbency?
A certificate of incumbency (also called a certificate of officers) lists the current officers and directors of a company and confirms their authority to act on behalf of the company. It is commonly required by foreign banks and business registries.
Notarization and Apostille Process
We coordinate notarization of the resolution or incumbency certificate by a Florida notary public, then obtain the apostille from the Florida Secretary of State. The process typically takes 1–3 business days.
Translation
Many countries require these documents in the local language. We can arrange certified translation along with the apostille service.
