Notary Public Services: Authenticating Your Company’s Registration

Understanding the Importance of Document Authentication

When conducting business internationally, it’s crucial to ensure that your company’s documentation is legally recognized and accepted by foreign authorities. This often involves a process known as authentication or legalization.

What is a Certificate of Registration?

A Certificate of Registration, also known as a Certificate of Incorporation or Articles of Incorporation, is a legal document issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). It certifies that a company is officially registered in Australia.

Why Does it Need to Be Authenticated?

To be legally recognized by foreign authorities, a Certificate of Registration must be authenticated. This process involves verifying the authenticity of the document and the signatures on it.

The Role of a Notary Public and DFAT

  1. Notarization: A notary public can certify the authenticity of a copy of the Certificate of Registration. This involves verifying the document’s source and ensuring it’s a true copy.
  2. Authentication by DFAT: The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) can authenticate the notary public’s signature and seal, further validating the document’s authenticity.
