Why Gabon asks for a legalised Memorandum of Association (MOA)
The Memorandum of Association states your company's name, registered office, objects and capital. Registries abroad check it to confirm that your company is allowed to carry on the business it plans there. The MOA is filed with the Registrar of Companies; the copy legalised is certified as a true copy by a director or company secretary.
Registering a local entity, distributor or tender bid in Africa commonly requires legalised company documents from India.
In Gabon, a legalised Memorandum of Association (MOA) is typically requested for company or branch registration; it is also used for joint venture approvals and tender qualification.
The Memorandum of Association (MOA) 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 Gabon in New Delhi.
