Certificate of Incorporation Attestation

Certificate of incorporation attestation lets a foreign government, bank or partner rely on your company's registration. The certificate issued by the Registrar of Companies is notarised, attested by the Chamber of Commerce and the Ministry of External Affairs, and then apostilled or legalised by the embassy. We attest the COI with your MOA, AOA, board resolution and other company documents in one coordinated file.

What is COI attestation?

Company document attestation in the right order

The certificate of incorporation (COI) is issued by the Registrar of Companies under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. Abroad it is accepted only after it is legalised, together with the company's constitution and authorisations.

Company document attestation usually runs: notary (true copy or signature), Chamber of Commerce, MEA attestation, then embassy legalisation. For Hague Convention countries an MEA apostille can replace the embassy step. Most foreign authorities want the COI, MOA, AOA and a board resolution attested as one set.
