Why this service

Corporate

Cross-border corporate procedures are our secondary but high-value niche. Whether you're a French SME with a UK subsidiary, a British company opening an entity in Cameroon, or a pan-African group structuring its operations, FrancoLegal coordinates the authentication and legalisation of your corporate documents.

Articles of association, board resolutions, certificates of incorporation, certificates of good standing, corporate powers of attorney: all may require an FCDO apostille and sometimes consular legalisation depending on the destination country.

Confidential, professional service, with NDA available and volume discounts.

Why it's complex without us

Why it's complex without us

Three pitfalls individuals face when attempting these procedures alone.

Corporate documents have strict formal requirements: original signature of an authorised director, company letterhead, sometimes a Companies House certified copy, sometimes a prior board resolution. One error and the whole file is rejected.

British corporate notaries are expensive and their slots are limited. Coordinating notarisation, apostille, and consular legalisation requires precise logistics.

For non-Hague countries, embassies often require specific information about the intended use (subsidiary formation, public tender, etc.) and may reject incomplete files.
