Congo RDC Legalization for Company Documents in Switzerland

Swiss company documents intended for use in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Congo RDC) must undergo a formal consular legalization process before they are officially recognized by Congolese authorities. Apostilles.ch provides a professional and reliable Congo RDC legalization service for company documents in Switzerland, supporting businesses with accurate and compliant document handling from start to finish.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. As a result, an apostille alone is not sufficient for Swiss corporate documents. Instead, documents must be legalized through a multi-step procedure involving Swiss authorities and the Congolese diplomatic representation. This process can be complex, particularly for time-sensitive commercial matters. Our experienced specialists ensure each step is completed correctly to avoid delays or rejection.

We assist with the legalization of a wide range of Swiss-issued corporate and commercial documents, including:

• Articles of association

• Board resolutions

• Powers of attorney

• Shareholder certificates

• Invoices and supporting business documents

Each document is carefully reviewed prior to submission to ensure it meets the specific requirements of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The Congo RDC Legalization Process

Legalization of company documents for use in Congo RDC generally includes the following steps:
