UAE shareholder resolution attestation roadmap

What happens after you generate the document, and which stamps your bank or authority will ask for.

  1. 1

    Draft & sign the resolution

    Generate the resolution, have every shareholder sign it and apply the company seal. Keep the original — notaries reject scans.

    Done here in DocMak

  2. 2

    Notary public attestation

    A UAE notary public verifies the signatures against the trade licence, MOA and shareholder passports, then stamps the resolution.

    Usually same day

  3. 3

    MOFA attestation

    The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs legalises the notarised resolution so it is accepted by banks, courts and authorities.

    Required for most bank mandates

  4. 4

    Embassy / destination use

    If the resolution is used abroad, the destination-country embassy completes the chain. Otherwise submit it to your bank, DED, DMCC, JAFZA, DIFC or ADGM.

    Only for overseas use

Frequently asked questions

What is a shareholder resolution for bank account opening?

It is a written decision, signed by all shareholders, authorising the company to open a corporate bank account and naming the authorised signatories and their signing limits. UAE banks require it as part of the account-opening file, together with the trade licence, MOA and signatory IDs.

How do I get a shareholders resolution attested in the UAE?

Sign the resolution, have the signatures attested by a UAE notary public, then submit it to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) for attestation. If the resolution will be used outside the UAE, add legalisation by the destination country's embassy, and attach a certified legal translation if the receiving party works in Arabic.

Does a bank shareholder resolution need to be notarised?

Most UAE banks accept a resolution signed by all shareholders and stamped with the company seal, but many request notarisation — and always do so when a shareholder signs abroad or by proxy. Confirm with your relationship manager before booking the notary appointment.

UAE Attestation Support

Need your shareholder resolution attested?

Some shareholder resolutions need to be notarised, translated, or attested by MOFA and the destination embassy before UAE banks, government authorities, free zones, or overseas counterparties accept them. We coordinate the whole chain for you.
