Overview

Certificate of incorporation for the Gambia: what and why

The certificate of incorporation proves that your company legally exists, with its name, CIN and date of incorporation. It is usually the first document foreign registries, banks and buyers ask for. The certificate of incorporation is issued by the Registrar of Companies through the MCA; the printed copy is certified as a true copy.

Registering a local entity, distributor or tender bid in Africa commonly requires legalised company documents from India.

Authorities, banks and business partners in the Gambia usually ask for a legalised certificate of incorporation for subsidiary or branch registration, supplier registration and tenders or bank accounts.

A certificate of incorporation issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the High Commission of the Gambia in New Delhi.

The Gambia process for an Indian certificate of incorporation

  1. Send us a scan first

    WhatsApp a scan of the certificate of incorporation and tell us who in the Gambia will receive it. We check it and reply with the steps, timeline and price.

  2. Notarisation

    A notary in India verifies the signature on the certificate of incorporation or certifies the copy, which is the first stamp in the chain.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    The certificate of incorporation is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, which checks your company's details and the signatory before stamping it.

  4. Ministry of External Affairs

    The MEA checks the chamber's signature and attests the certificate of incorporation, which the Gambia High Commission requires before it will legalise it.

  5. Gambia High Commission legalisation

    The High Commission of the Gambia in New Delhi adds its legalisation stamp. This is the final stamp needed in India.

  6. Tracked return

    We courier the legalised document back by Blue Dart or another tracked courier, or you collect it from our Delhi office.

What to send us

  • Name-change certificate, if any
  • Printed certificate of incorporation, certified as a true copy
  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Board resolution and MOA/AOA, if legalised together

Avoid rejection

  • Legalise the name-change certificate too if the name has changed.
