There may come a time when you need documents legally authenticated for your business. Often times, we see a number of corporate documents that call for some type of authentication in order to be filed in legal proceedings, business agreements or contracts.
A process is in place for each type of authenticating in Hong Kong; notarized, apostilled or legalized. This is especially helpful in situations such as opening a bank account in Hong Kong or foreign country, opening a WOFE (Wholly Owned Foreign Enterprise) in China, or when you’re entering into business contracts with an international company. Our team is experienced in any one of these processes and we are here to support you and your business no matter what the circumstances call for.
If you are unsure of how these document authentications differ, we have defined them below. This will give you a better understanding of how these verification processes work in Hong Kong and how they are used around the world.
