What is a Board Resolution and Why Does It Need Attestation?
A board resolution is a legal document that records the decisions made by a company’s board of directors or partners, such as appointing a new manager, opening a branch, changing the management structure, or increasing capital. To ensure these decisions are officially recognized by banks, free zones and government authorities, the written resolution is certified by a notary public.
Our office provides online attestation of board resolutions, whether you are inside or outside the UAE. You can meet with the notary remotely and obtain an attested resolution from your office or workplace. Additionally, we offer the option of having a notary public visit your location to provide the certification service.
Board Resolution vs Shareholders’ Resolution vs Minutes of Meeting
Board resolution: a decision made by the board of directors, common in joint stock companies and larger groups.
Shareholders’ or partners’ resolution: a decision made by the owners, common in LLCs.
Minutes of meeting: the record of the meeting where the decision was made. Some authorities ask for both.
