Legal structures
How documents combine
For each evidence area, this table shows whether the listed documents are alternatives (any one of) or a bundle (all required). The artifact-by-artifact lookup follows below.Documents to collect
The physical documents you’ll collect from your customer, with the evidence area each one proves. One document can prove multiple areas — for example, Brazil’s Cartão CNPJ covers both tax and business-registration proof, so it appears once with both areas listed.
Not applicable in Ghana: Good Standing. Skip these areas — no local artifact exists.
Collection notes
- Ownership Records: Structure is Constitution + (Annual Return OR Particulars of Shareholders). Constitution is always required; either ownership filing satisfies the share-record requirement depending on company vintage and filing status.
- Address: Lease (no time bound) OR utility bill OR bank statement, with utility/bank dated within 90 days.
Person roles
When you submit a person on the application body, set theirrole to one of Conduit’s canonical BusinessPersonRole values. Use this table to map a local corporate-governance title onto the right canonical role.
Notes
- At least 1 of the minimum 2 directors must be ordinarily resident in Ghana (Companies Act 2019, §171).
- Constitution is a single document under Act 992, replacing the prior Memorandum + Articles.
