Documents Required for Section 8 Company Registration

6 documents15–25 working days, subject to MCA licence approval

Section 8 Company Registration is granted on the strength of the papers you file with it, so a complete set at the start is the difference between 15–25 working days, subject to mca licence approval and a query that sends the application back. Below is every document our team needs from you, what each one is for, and how to get it to us. You upload all of it in your Fastlegal dashboard — nothing is couriered, and nothing is payable while you gather it.
