When you need a legalised board resolution in South Africa
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.
Registering a local entity, distributor or tender bid in Africa commonly requires legalised company documents from India.
Authorities, banks and business partners in South Africa usually ask for a legalised board resolution for branch and subsidiary registration, appointing authorised signatories or bank account opening.
A board resolution issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. South Africa accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
