Overview

Certificate of incorporation for Qatar: 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.

Setting up a branch, appointing a local agent or opening a bank account in the Middle East usually starts with a legalised set of company documents from India.

In Qatar, a legalised certificate of incorporation is typically requested for subsidiary or branch registration; it is also used for supplier registration and tenders and 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 Embassy of Qatar in New Delhi.

After Qatar Embassy legalisation in New Delhi, Qatari authorities generally also want the document attested by Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs after arrival, which your Qatari partner arranges locally.

How to get a certificate of incorporation attested for Qatar

  1. Share your document and buyer's checklist

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

  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

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

  4. Ministry of External Affairs

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

  5. Qatar Embassy legalisation

    The Embassy of Qatar in New Delhi adds its legalisation stamp. Your partner then completes MOFA attestation after arrival.

  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

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

Avoid rejection

  • The CIN and name must match the MOA and board resolution.
  • Check that the company name is spelt the same way on every document; the Qatar Embassy compares names across the set.
  • Legalise the name-change certificate too if the name has changed.
  • Order extra originals; many authorities keep the legalised copy.
