Board Resolution Legalization for use in Kuwait

International business transactions require accuracy, compliance, and trusted documentation. Among the key documents for companies conducting or expanding operations abroad is the Board Resolution. When presenting this document in Kuwait, it must undergo legalization to be officially recognized by government authorities, financial institutions, and business partners.


The Arab American Chamber of Commerce provides specialized services for Board Resolution legalization, offering businesses a reliable and efficient solution to ensure their corporate documents are accepted in Kuwait.

What is a Board Resolution?

A Board Resolution is an official document issued by a company’s board of directors. It records formal decisions made by the board, such as appointing officers, authorizing contracts, approving business expansions, or making significant financial commitments. Essentially, it serves as written proof of corporate actions and the authority granted to individuals or entities to carry them out.


While valid within the United States, a Board Resolution must be legalized before it can be used abroad, including in Kuwait. Legalization guarantees its authenticity and ensures it meets the requirements of Kuwaiti authorities.

Why Legalization is Required in Kuwait

Since Kuwait is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, U.S. corporate documents such as Board Resolutions cannot be authenticated with an apostille alone. Instead, they must undergo a complete legalization process to be formally recognized in Kuwait.

Legalization of a Board Resolution in Kuwait is often required for:

  • Business Registration: Establishing a branch, subsidiary, or representative office.

  • Banking Purposes: Opening or managing corporate bank accounts.

  • Regulatory Filings: Submitting official documents to Kuwaiti ministries or agencies.

  • Tenders and Contracts: Authorizing representatives to sign agreements on behalf of the company.

  • Corporate Governance: Demonstrating the board’s approval for key decisions and transactions.


Without proper legalization, a Board Resolution may be rejected, leading to delays, missed opportunities, and complications in business operations.
