Overview

Certificate of incorporation for the Philippines: 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.

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

Companies dealing with the Philippines are most often asked for a legalised certificate of incorporation during subsidiary or branch registration, as well as for supplier registration and tenders and bank accounts.

A certificate of incorporation issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. The Philippines accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

Process

How to get a certificate of incorporation apostilled for the Philippines

  1. Confirm the requirement

    Share the certificate of incorporation and the instructions you received from the Philippines. We check signatures, names and dates before you courier anything.

  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. MEA apostille

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

  5. Back to you

    The finished certificate of incorporation is returned by tracked courier, or collected from our New Ashok Nagar office, ready for use in the Philippines.

What to send us

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

Avoid rejection

  • 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.
  • Order extra originals; many authorities keep the legalised copy.
  • Legalise the name-change certificate too if the name has changed.
