Overview

When you need a legalised Memorandum of Association (MOA) in Portugal

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.

Opening a subsidiary or branch in Europe, or signing before a European notary, usually requires apostilled company documents and a certified translation.

In Portugal, 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 and then apostilled by the MEA. Portugal accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

What to send us

  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Certified true copy of the latest MOA
  • Certificate of incorporation copy
  • Certified Portuguese translation, if the authority in Portugal asks (we arrange it)
  • Board resolution for the purpose abroad

Avoid rejection

  • Use the latest amended MOA filed with the ROC.
  • Legalise the AOA in the same batch; most registries want both.
  • Bind multi-page copies so pages cannot be swapped.
  • Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
