Document background
The Certificate Of Incorporation Short Form is a fundamental document required for establishing a corporation in the Philippines. This document is mandated by the Revised Corporation Code of the Philippines and must be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to legally create a corporation. It contains critical information about the corporate entity, including its name, purpose, capital structure, and key personnel. The short form version is typically used for straightforward corporate structures where complex provisions or special arrangements are not required. This document serves as the corporation's primary charter and must comply with Philippine corporate laws and SEC regulations. It is essential for businesses seeking to establish a corporate presence in the Philippines and forms the foundation for all subsequent corporate activities and regulatory compliance.
