Overview

When you need a legalised certificate of incorporation in Japan

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.

Companies entering Asian markets usually need legalised incorporation and authority documents to register a subsidiary, office or local partner.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Japan 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 and then apostilled by the MEA. Japan accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

Process

The Japan process for an Indian certificate of incorporation

  1. Share your document and buyer's checklist

    Send a scan of the certificate of incorporation and any list your buyer or authority in Japan gave you. We confirm the route, timeline and an all-inclusive quote.

  2. Notary in India

    The signatory's signature or the certified copy is notarised in India, as the chamber and MEA require for this document.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies your company and signatory and stamps the certificate of incorporation.

  4. MEA apostille

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

  5. 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

  • Board resolution and MOA/AOA, if legalised together
  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Printed certificate of incorporation, certified as a true copy
  • Certified Japanese translation, if the authority in Japan asks (we arrange it)
  • Name-change certificate, if any

Avoid rejection

  • Legalise the name-change certificate too if the name has changed.
  • Order extra originals; many authorities keep the legalised copy.
  • Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
  • The CIN and name must match the MOA and board resolution.
