Document background
The Certificate of Incorporation Apostille serves as a crucial document for Malaysian companies engaging in international business activities. This document becomes necessary when a company needs to prove its legal existence and registration status to foreign authorities, potential business partners, or regulatory bodies outside Malaysia. The apostille certification, introduced after Malaysia's accession to the Hague Convention in 2019, eliminates the need for double certification or diplomatic legalization in member countries. The document contains verified company registration details, incorporation date, and official seals from both the Companies Commission of Malaysia and the apostille issuing authority. It's particularly important for companies establishing foreign subsidiaries, participating in international tenders, opening overseas bank accounts, or engaging in cross-border transactions.
