Why Papua New Guinea 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 business presence in Oceania usually needs apostilled company documents from India.
Authorities, banks and business partners in Papua New Guinea usually ask for a legalised Memorandum of Association (MOA) for company or branch registration, joint venture approvals or 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 High Commission of Papua New Guinea in New Delhi.
