Why Sri Lanka asks for a legalised certificate of registration
Not every business is a company. Partnership firms, LLPs, proprietorships with MSME (Udyam) registration, societies and trusts prove their legal existence with a registration certificate. Registration certificates for partnership firms, LLPs, societies, trusts and MSMEs are issued by the relevant Indian registrar or portal.
Companies entering Asian markets usually need legalised incorporation and authority documents to register a subsidiary, office or local partner.
In Sri Lanka, a legalised certificate of registration is typically requested for supplier registration; it is also used for bank and buyer due diligence and tenders and product registration.
A certificate of registration 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 Sri Lanka in New Delhi.
