Authoritative Proof of Your Company's Active Officers and Owners

A Belize Certificate of Incumbency is a confidential document issued by your company's Registered Agent that lists the current directors, shareholders, and corporate details of your company. Since Belize does not publicly disclose this information, the incumbency certificate is the primary means of proving your company's leadership structure to banks, business partners, and regulatory bodies.

Who Issues?
Your Registered Agent
This certificate is issued by the company's Registered Agent—not the Belize Companies Registry (BCCAR/OBRS).

Certificate Contents

What's Included in Your Certificate

Every element of the Belize Certificate of Incumbency explained—from jurisdiction heading to agent authentication

01

Jurisdiction and Applicable Legislation

The certificate opens by identifying Belize as the jurisdiction of incorporation. It cites the International Business Companies Act, Chapter 270 of the Laws of Belize as the statute under which the company was formed and the incumbency information is confirmed.
02

Agent Letterhead and Branding

The Registered Agent's official letterhead appears at the top, including their name, address, and licence details. This establishes who prepared the document and confirms their standing to certify corporate information for Belize companies.
03

Certificate Heading and Date

The title "Certificate of Incumbency" is printed clearly on the document, followed by the date on which the certificate was issued. The issuance date determines the moment at which all recorded information was verified as accurate.
04

Company Name and Registration Number

Presents the company's official registered name and its Belize registration number. This unique registration number is permanently assigned at incorporation and remains the definitive identifier across all regulatory and commercial dealings.
05

Board of Directors

Names each sitting director along with their appointment date where recorded. Since Belize does not publicly disclose director details for companies, this section of the certificate provides the sole independently verified record of who governs the company.
06

Officers (if appointed)

If the company has designated officers—such as a President, Secretary, or Treasurer—they are listed here with their respective titles. Not all Belize companies appoint formal officers, so this section appears only when applicable.
07

Shareholders and Shareholdings

Records the identity of each registered shareholder and the shares they hold, including share class and quantity. Belize maintains strict confidentiality over shareholder information, making the incumbency certificate the standard way to evidence ownership to third parties.
08

Registered Office and Agent

Specifies the company's registered office address in Belize along with the name of the Registered Agent. This is the address recognized by law for receiving official correspondence and legal process.
09

Agent Seal, Signature, and Certification Date

The Registered Agent's embossed or printed seal and personal signature close the document, accompanied by the date. These authentication marks confirm that the agent has reviewed the company's records and vouches for the accuracy of the information presented.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about requesting a certificate of incumbency for your Belize company

A Belize Certificate of Incumbency is a confidential document issued by the company's Registered Agent that sets out the current directors, shareholders, officers (if any), and share capital of your company. Belize does not disclose this information publicly, so the certificate acts as the authoritative record of your company's corporate governance for banks, legal advisors, and commercial partners.

The company must be in good standing under the International Business Companies Act, Chapter 270. All annual registration fees should be paid, no dissolution or winding-up proceedings should be in progress, and the agent's records must reflect the company's current details. We can assist with any remediation needed before the certificate is prepared.

It is available exclusively to companies administered through us. If your Belize company is presently under a different administration, a transfer to our services will make you eligible. Once transferred, you benefit from streamlined access to certificate retrieval and broader compliance support.

The company's Registered Agent issues and signs the document. Neither the Belize Companies Registry nor the International Financial Services Commission produces this certificate. The agent relies on records kept at the company's registered office to certify each detail.

No expiry is prescribed by Belize legislation. However, third parties—particularly banks and compliance departments—typically ask for a certificate dated within the last three to six months to ensure the information reflects the company's current position.

Standard processing takes between one and three business days. Once complete, a certified digital copy is delivered securely, and a physical original can be dispatched upon request.

Yes. There is no requirement to visit Belize or appear in person. You place your request with us, we handle coordination and certification, and the finished document is sent to you digitally.

A sample is shown on this page to give you a clear idea of the document's layout and content. When your certificate is ready, it will be delivered as a professional-grade scanned PDF suitable for submission to financial institutions and legal firms.

The total cost is US$179—a single, all-inclusive fee. This encompasses agent certification, document preparation, verification of corporate records, scanning, and delivery. No extra fees are charged at any stage.
