Certificate of Incorporation in Pakistan
Legalisation steps for the SECP certificate of incorporation, used for overseas incorporation, bank accounts and business filings in Pakistan.
What the incorporation certificate proves
The certificate is the company birth record. Everything else about the company legally exists downstream of it.
Issuing authority
SECP
Proving the legal birth and statutory existence of a Pakistani corporate entity abroad requires the SECP Certificate of Incorporation. Issued under the Companies Act 2017, certified copies of incorporation certificates require Ministry of Foreign Affairs legalisation for foreign commercial recognition.
Certified copies are issued by SECP against the company number. The certificate is then attested when it must be accepted by a foreign registry, bank, or regulator.
Before a foreign registry accepts it
SECP certification, company standing, and the certification chain are what get inspected.
