If you’re using a Seychelles International Business Company (IBC) for banking, investment onboarding, a corporate transaction, or cross-border compliance, you may be asked for UK solicitor certified copies (often called a “certified true copy”) of your key company documents.

This page explains what documents are commonly required and how Ginkgo Advisory can help you get them certified by a UK practising solicitor.


Common Seychelles IBC documents requested for AML/KYC and transactions

Most banks, compliance teams, corporate service providers, and counterparties request some or all of the following:

  • Certificate of Incorporation (CI)
  • Register of Directors (ROD)
  • Register of Members (ROM)
  • Memorandum & Articles of Association (M&A)
  • Certificate of Incumbency (COI)
  • Certificate of Good Standing (COGS)

These documents help the receiving party confirm the company’s formation details, governance, control, and current standing.

When you may need UK solicitor certified copies

Typical scenarios include:

  • opening or maintaining a corporate bank account
  • onboarding with a regulated firm (KYB / AML checks)
  • investment subscriptions and shareholder onboarding
  • cross-border transactions where a counterparty needs certified corporate records
  • internal compliance or audit requirements for offshore structures

How Ginkgo Advisory can help

Ginkgo Advisory supports clients who need UK practising solicitor certified true copies of Seychelles IBC documents—efficiently, with compliance expectations in mind.

1) UK practising solicitor certification

We can certify true copies of your Seychelles company documents for submission to banks, regulated firms, and counterparties, including CI, ROD, ROM, M&A, Incumbency, and Good Standing.

2) Document verification with the Registered Agent

We can verify the documents with the Registered Agent before certification—confirming that the document pack is consistent with the Registered Agent’s issuance/records.

This step is particularly useful when:

  • client to forward documents provided by the Registered Agent
  • a bank asks for confirmation that the documents were issued by the Registered Agent
  • you want to reduce the risk of delays, rejections, or repeated compliance queries

3) Practical submission readiness

We help ensure your document pack is in a clean, bank-friendly way—so your compliance review is less likely to bounce back for technical reasons (missing pages, unclear naming, outdated Good Standing, etc.).


What we typically need from you

To proceed, you normally provide:

  • clear PDFs of the documents you need certified (CI / ROD / ROM / M&A / Incumbency / Good Standing)
  • the Registered Agent’s contact route or email thread / reference details
