Frequently used for:
Customers with UK companies trading outside the UK are sometimes asked to provide a copy of their certificate of incorporation with an apostille. We can help you to legalise your company registration certificate with our fully inclusive service.
The certificate of incorporation is provided to newly registered companies to confirm the company name, company number and the country of registration. This document can be legalised with the apostille to confirm the company details to overseas organisations
If your company was registered in the last few years then you probably have an electronic copy of your certificate. Most UK companies are now formed online with the certificate being provided by Companies House in PDF format. This can be emailed to us for processing.
For older companies or those without an ‘official’ PDF version of the certificate do not worry. You can simply scan and email a copy of the document to us or we can download a free file copy from Companies House for you.
Emailing your document to us, or us downloading a copy, saves you time and postage costs. We can check your certificate against Companies House database, arrange for a solicitor to correctly certify the document and then issue the apostille. All this is completed in just 1-2 days.
If you need our assistance downloading documents or ordering replacement documents do not hesitate to contact us. We have accounts with Companies House and order documents every day for customers.
We ensure all company documents are checked, certified by our solicitor when required and legalised with the apostille as quickly as possible. Using our service makes the process as simple as possible for your business. Working with the embassies in London we can also arrange for documents to be attested if required. This is only needed for countries that are not members of the Hague Convention.
