When you need a legalised list of directors in Kenya
Foreign registries, banks and partners often ask for an official list of your company's directors and authorised signatories, to check who controls and represents the company. The list of directors is issued on company letterhead and certified by a director or practising Company Secretary, usually matching the MCA master data.
Registering a local entity, distributor or tender bid in Africa commonly requires legalised company documents from India.
Companies dealing with Kenya are most often asked for a legalised list of directors during company and branch registration, as well as for bank KYC and tender and supplier due diligence.
A list of directors 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 Kenya in New Delhi.
