Nota Simple – Details of Directors/ Administradores

A director in Spain can sign contracts on behalf of a company in their own right or with the consent of other directors depending on the powers they have been given in the deeds of appointment.

When relying on a director’s powers, look out for the following descriptions

• Administrador Mancomuniado – where consent of all directors is needed, before signing a contract
• Administrador Único – where there is only one director
• Administrador Solidario – where each director with this designation can bind the company in a contract

The Law of Companies Financed by Capital means that an administrador solidario may have to get consent of Shareholders to sign document.
