What a delibera actually records

A resolution is the written trace of a decision: a date, a quorum, a vote and a signature. Working out how to legalize a Corporate Resolution starts with reading that sheet as a stranger would, because a foreign clerk sees nothing but what is printed. Missing names sink files.

The desk depends on how it was made

Here the route is not fixed in advance. If a notary recorded your meeting, the minute is a notarial act and the court handles it. If a notary only certified the signatures afterwards, the paper counts as administrative and the embassy legalization of a Corporate Resolution in Naples goes through the Prefettura. Read the notary's page before you decide anything else.

The foreign leg

After the Italian stamp, the destination's mission normally signs. The consular legalization of a Corporate Resolution in Italy is that officer's own mark, laid over the Italian one so a register abroad can trust the chain. Missions handle company paper on set days, so check the calendar before the board fixes a completion date.

Cost and timing

Two charges land on this file. To legalize a Corporate Resolution in Naples you buy a €16 marca da bollo for the Italian stamp. The mission then adds a fee of its own, set by that mission and open to change. Allow 10–15 business days for standard handling, or 3–5 if you take the express route.

What boards use a stamped minute for

Appointing a director abroad, opening an account, authorising a signature on a foreign deed — each of those asks for the decision in writing and stamped. The embassy attestation of a Corporate Resolution in Naples is what makes the minute count outside the company's own files. Whether that stamp is asked for at all rests on the destination; confirm with the receiving authority before the board sets a date.

Corporate Resolution legalization FAQ

Which desk handles Corporate Resolution legalization Naples, the Prefettura or the court?

Usually the Prefettura, because a board minute is treated as administrative paper once the signatures are certified. It shifts to the Procura della Repubblica only when a notary recorded the meeting itself as an act. Your notary can tell you in one sentence which of the two you are holding. Going to the wrong counter costs a morning, not a fee. Show us the notary's page and we route it.

Does a notary have to sit in the meeting?

Not for most decisions. A delibera is notarial only when the law or your own bylaws say the meeting must be recorded by one, which happens for certain changes to a company. For everything else a notary simply certifies the signatures afterwards. If you are unsure, ask the notary before the meeting rather than after, because a missing record cannot be added later. That one question saves whole weeks.

Do we need the consular stamp?

It depends on the destination; confirm with the receiving authority before you pay anything. One country's register will accept a single-step certification from the Italian side, and another will not open the file without its own consular signature. Ask the office that will read the minute, in writing, and keep their answer with the papers. We build the chain to fit that reply. Nothing more is added on spec.

How long does it take, and what does it cost?

Count 10–15 business days for the ordinary route and 3–5 on the express one, measured from the certified minute. The Italian file needs a €16 marca da bollo, and the mission then charges a fee that it sets on its own. Board timetables are the usual pinch: a decision taken on a Friday cannot be abroad on Monday. Give us the deadline first. We work the bookings backwards from it.

Do we need a translation of the minute?

The facts here do not fix a target language, so confirm the required language with the receiving office in writing. Once they name it, the text is turned over and bound to the certified minute before the consular leg. A translation added after the stamps means the whole bundle is opened again. That usually costs a second consular fee too. Ask first, translate once, then send.

Can one stamped minute serve several offices abroad?

Sometimes, but most registers keep whatever you hand them. If a bank, a notary abroad and a register all want the decision, order a certified copy for each at the start. Copies made together travel together and cost only the notary's charge per sheet. Splitting them into separate runs later means paying the consular fee again for each. Tell us the number of counters and we set the batch.
