Overview

Why Switzerland asks for a legalised business agreement

Sale and supply contracts, service agreements, joint venture agreements and MoUs signed in India often need legal effect abroad, for tenders, bank financing, registrations or court proceedings. Business agreements such as sale, supply, service, joint venture or MoU documents are executed by your company's authorised signatory.

Opening a subsidiary or branch in Europe, or signing before a European notary, usually requires apostilled company documents and a certified translation.

Companies dealing with Switzerland are most often asked for a legalised business agreement during tenders and supplier registration, as well as for joint venture or project registration and bank financing and dispute resolution.

A business agreement issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Switzerland accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

Process

How to get a business agreement apostilled for Switzerland

  1. Confirm the requirement

    Share the business agreement and the instructions you received from Switzerland. We check signatures, names and dates before you courier anything.

  2. Notarisation

    A notary in India verifies the signature on the business agreement or certifies the copy, which is the first stamp in the chain.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies your company and signatory and stamps the business agreement.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Back to you

    The finished business agreement is returned by tracked courier, or collected from our New Ashok Nagar office, ready for use in Switzerland.

What to send us

  • Signatory ID and company registration copies
  • Translation, if required abroad
  • Certified German, French or Italian translation, if the authority in Switzerland asks (we arrange it)
  • Board resolution authorising the signatory
  • Original signed agreement

Avoid rejection

  • Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
  • Attach annexures referred to in the agreement.
  • Use registered legal names, not brand names.
  • Make sure all pages are signed or initialled.
