What supporting documents do I need to submit with my IDERA/CDCL application?
a. The required supporting documents vary according to the signatory's designation.
i. Company's key appointment holder:
- National company registration details, or an equivalent document, that identifies the current key appointment holders of the company.
ii. Company’s employee who is not a key appointment holder:
- National company registration details, or an equivalent document, that identifies the current key appointment holders of the company, and
- Board Resolution: Where a company is executing the IDERA, a resolution passed by the Board of Directors explicitly authorising the signatory to sign the IDERA is required.
iii. A local external party (for e.g., a lawyer or non-employee):
- National company registration details, or an equivalent document, that identifies the current key appointment holders of the company, and
- Power of Attorney explicitly empowering the signatory to execute the application on the company’s behalf.
iv. A foreign external party (e.g., a lawyer or non-employee):
- National company registration details, or an equivalent document, that identifies the current key appointment holders of the company,
- Power of Attorney explicitly empowering the signatory to execute the application on the company’s behalf, and
- Letter from a Law Firm (Certification Letter) in that foreign jurisdiction certifying that the Power of Attorney:
a. has been done in accordance with the laws of that foreign jurisdiction,
b. has been properly executed, and
c. is effective in that jurisdiction.
(Refer to AC IIAE-1 Appendix 1 for a sample Certification Letter)
b. CAAS may, in its discretion, request additional documents to verify the signatory's authority.
