STEP-BY-STEP EXECUTION & FILING GUIDE

1. Data Preparation:

• Replace all bracketed fields (e.g., [Company Full Legal Name]) with actual corporate data.
• Ensure the "Authorized Signatory" is a person currently authorized via the Company’s Articles of Association or a previous Board Resolution to handle tax filings.

2. Formatting & Verification:

• If your jurisdiction requires a physical company seal, ensure the seal is affixed over the signature area.
• Print this document on the Company’s official letterhead to enhance its evidentiary value for tax authorities.

3. Digital Execution:

• If utilizing electronic signatures (e.g., DocuSign or Adobe Sign), ensure that the "Audit Trail" or "Certificate of Completion" is saved alongside the signed PDF.
• Verify that the signatories have the legal capacity to bind the corporation under your jurisdiction’s specific Corporate Governance codes.

4. Record Retention:

• File the original signed document in the Company’s "Minutes Book" or "Corporate Governance Repository."
• Upload a scanned PDF copy to the relevant tax portal as an "Attachment" or "Supporting Document" under the "Authorized Signatory" section of the GST application.
• Maintain a copy for a minimum of seven (7) years or as required by local tax audit limitation periods.

5. Statutory Filing:

• Confirm if your local registry (e.g., Registrar of Companies) requires a formal filing of this resolution (e.g., Form MGT-14 in India) prior to submitting the tax registration application. Failure to file can lead to internal non-compliance penalties.
