Document background
The Director Consent Letter is a mandatory document required under UAE corporate law when appointing new directors to a company's board. This document must be prepared and executed before a director can be formally appointed and registered with the relevant authorities. The letter serves multiple purposes: it provides explicit confirmation of the individual's willingness to serve as a director, acknowledges their understanding of the role's responsibilities under UAE law, and includes necessary declarations regarding their eligibility to hold the position. The content must align with UAE Federal Commercial Companies Law requirements and any additional regulations specific to the company's jurisdiction (such as DIFC or ADGM requirements) or industry sector. This document forms part of the corporate records and may be required during regulatory filings, corporate changes, or audit procedures.
