Consolidated Corporate Snapshot Beyond Public Filings

A St. Vincent Certificate of Incumbency is an agent-certified document that consolidates your company's directors, shareholders, and corporate details into one verified record.

What's Included in Your Certificate

What each section of the SVG Certificate of Incumbency covers and how the information is structured

01

Jurisdiction and Statute

Identifies St. Vincent and the Grenadines as the jurisdiction of incorporation. The certificate references the Companies Act, 2009 as the governing legislation, establishing the legal framework for the certified information.
02

Registered Agent Letterhead

The document is issued on the letterhead of the company's Registered Agent, featuring the agent's name, address, and licensing credentials. This header confirms that the issuing party is authorized under SVG law to maintain the company's statutory records.
03

Certificate Title and Issuance Date

Prominently shows the title "Certificate of Incumbency" and the exact date the document was certified. The date is a critical reference for banks and counterparties assessing how current the verified information is.
04

Company Name and Registration Number

States the company's registered name and its unique registration number assigned by the SVG Financial Services Authority. This permanent identifier is used in all regulatory filings and serves as the definitive way to reference the entity.
05

Directors

Provides the full names of all current directors together with their appointment dates. St. Vincent and the Grenadines does not maintain a public directory of company directors, so the incumbency certificate is the standard means of verifying directorship.
06

Shareholders and Shares Issued

Records the names of each registered shareholder, the classes of shares held, and the number issued. SVG preserves the confidentiality of shareholder information, making the incumbency certificate the principal document for disclosing ownership to authorized parties.
07

Registered Office and Agent

Lists the company's registered office address in SVG and the name of the Registered Agent on record. This is the official address for receiving legal notices, government correspondence, and any service of process on the company.
08

Agent Seal, Signature, and Certification Date

Concludes with the Registered Agent's official seal and signature alongside the certification date. These three elements together authenticate the document and confirm that the agent has verified all stated information from the company's records.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions about the SVG Certificate of Incumbency for SVG companies

An SVG Certificate of Incumbency is a document certified by the company's Registered Agent that verifies the current directors, shareholders, and share capital of your company. Because SVG does not make this information publicly available, the certificate is the recognized method for presenting your company's corporate structure to banks, legal advisors, and business partners.

The company must be in good standing with the SVG Financial Services Authority (FSA). This entails current annual fees, no pending strike-off or dissolution, and up-to-date statutory records. If any compliance matters need attention, we can assist with resolving them in advance.

Only for companies administered through us. If your SVG company is currently with a different provider, you can transfer its administration to us. Once the transfer is complete, certificate retrieval becomes immediately available alongside our full service range.

The company's Registered Agent issues and signs the document. The SVG FSA does not produce incumbency certificates. The agent bases the certification on records held at the company's registered office.

SVG legislation does not define an expiry period. Banks and professional counterparties generally accept a certificate that is no older than three to six months. For new banking relationships or significant transactions, a recently issued certificate is recommended.

One to three business days is the standard timeframe. The certificate is delivered as a digital PDF, and a physical original can be arranged if your counterparty requires it.

Yes—the process is fully remote. You submit your request to us, we manage the preparation and agent certification, and the final document is delivered to you electronically.

Yes. A representative sample is displayed above so you can see the structure and content categories. When your certificate is ready, you will receive a professional digital copy suitable for submission to financial institutions worldwide.
