When you need a legalised Articles of Association (AOA) in Trinidad and Tobago
The Articles of Association set out how your company is run: directors' powers, meetings, share transfers and signing authority. Foreign registries and banks read it to understand who can bind the company. The AOA is filed with the Registrar of Companies; the copy legalised is certified as a true copy by a director or company secretary.
Company formation and banking in the Americas usually requires apostilled corporate documents and, in Latin America, a certified translation.
Authorities, banks and business partners in Trinidad and Tobago usually ask for a legalised Articles of Association (AOA) for company or branch registration, bank account opening or verifying signing authority.
