Company Directors and Shareholders

Companies registered in Kenya have a legal obligation to maintain certain company registers.

We can provide a Kenya company search which includes details of the directors and shareholders filed with the Registrar of Companies at incorporation.

Apostille Kenya Company Documents

For official use of Kenya company documents abroad, an apostille can be obtained to certify their authenticity. The apostille is a form of authentication issued under the Hague Convention, which Kenya is a party to, and it confirms that the document is genuine and has been issued by the appropriate Kenyan authority. We offer an apostille service for company documents including Certificates of Good Standing, Memoranda and Articles of Association, and other official filings. This process involves notarisation followed by the apostille from the Kenyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, enabling your documents to be accepted internationally without further authentication
