Good standing certificate for Colombia: what and why
A certificate of good standing confirms that a company is active, compliant with its filings and not under liquidation. Many foreign registries and banks ask for one during registration or due diligence. India has no single ROC-issued good standing certificate; a certificate from a practising Company Secretary or Chartered Accountant, or the MCA master data, is normally used.
Company formation and banking in the Americas usually requires apostilled corporate documents and, in Latin America, a certified translation.
Companies dealing with Colombia are most often asked for a legalised good standing certificate during subsidiary and branch registration, as well as for bank account opening and tender and supplier qualification.
A good standing certificate issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Colombia accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
