Document background
The Corporate Resolution Form is a crucial document in Austrian corporate governance, used to formally document and validate company decisions. It is required whenever a company needs to record important decisions made by its governing bodies, such as approving significant transactions, changing authorized signatories, or modifying corporate structure. The document must adhere to Austrian corporate law requirements, including the UGB (Commercial Code) and specific corporate legislation depending on the company type (GmbH or AG). Some resolutions may require notarization and registration with the commercial register (Firmenbuch). The form serves multiple purposes: it provides evidence of proper corporate authorization, protects company officers and shareholders, and facilitates business transactions with third parties.
