Why Canada asks for a legalised board resolution
A board resolution records a decision of your directors, such as opening a branch abroad, appointing a representative, signing an agency agreement or granting a POA. Foreign authorities rely on it to confirm who may act for the company. The board resolution is issued as a certified true copy on company letterhead, signed by a director or the company secretary.
Company formation and banking in the Americas usually requires apostilled corporate documents and, in Latin America, a certified translation.
In Canada, a legalised board resolution is typically requested for branch and subsidiary registration; it is also used for appointing authorised signatories and bank account opening.
A board resolution issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Canada accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
Canada has accepted the apostille since January 2024, replacing consular legalisation.
