Share Certificate

What is Share Certificate?

An official document that confirms a shareholder’s ownership of a specific number of company shares.

Think of it like this…

A receipt of ownership that records the holder, number of shares, and date of issue.

Why does it matter?

• Often requested by banks and investors
• Supports transfers, sales, and audits
• Reduces disputes over ownership

Best practice

Use pre‑numbered certificates and mirror them in your share register.
