Document background
The Share Confirmation Letter is a critical corporate document used in Hong Kong to provide formal written confirmation of share ownership or recent share transfers. This document is typically issued when shares are initially allocated, transferred between parties, or when formal confirmation of existing shareholding is required for various corporate purposes. The letter includes essential details such as the shareholder's identity, number and class of shares, distinctive numbers, nominal value, and any specific rights or restrictions attached to the shares. Governed by Hong Kong's Companies Ordinance and related regulations, this document serves as official evidence of shareholding and is often required for legal, administrative, or financial purposes, including bank loans, corporate transactions, or regulatory compliance. The Share Confirmation Letter forms part of a company's essential corporate documentation and may be requested by various stakeholders including banks, regulators, or potential investors.
