What Is Commercial Document Attestation?

Commercial document attestation is the process of authenticating business-related documents so that their signatures, seals, or issuing authority can be verified for official use.

Commercial documents that may require attestation include commercial contracts, agreements, trade licences, company registration documents, board resolutions, shareholder certificates, powers of attorney, tax certificates, financial statements, product registrations, and other corporate documents.

The exact procedure depends on where the document was issued, where it will be used, the document type, and the requirements of the destination country or authority.
