Founder and shareholder documents for a Russian filing

Company Registration Document Translation in Russia

We prepare the translation component of a foreign founder’s or corporate shareholder’s document package for a Russian notary, registration adviser or filing workflow. The legal structure and filing strategy remain with the client’s lawyer, notary or adviser.

Ask the Russian notary or adviser for the current checklist first. Send the complete founder package and any approved Russian spellings so we can build a document-by-document translation and certification plan.

Registration scenarios

Who is joining the Russian company?

This EN-specific intent has no one-to-one RU page; it combines the verified RU corporate hub and its registration-document children without changing their Polylang relations.

01

Individual foreign founder

Passport, name spelling, address or authority records requested for forming a Russian entity.

02

Foreign corporate shareholder

Registration, charter, current extract, ownership, management and authority documents.

03

Representative under power

Power of attorney, identity and connected corporate authority records for the representative.

04

Foreign director or officer

Identity, appointment and authority records required by the adviser or filing route.

Founder package

Documents to map against the checklist

Do not treat this list as legal advice or a universal registration requirement.

Shareholders, beneficial owners, directors and the authority chain requested for the filing.

Sequence first

Confirm authentication before translation

Ask the Russian notary or registration adviser whether apostille or consular legalisation is required. If it is, that procedure normally has to be completed in the country that issued the document; the source and all resulting legalisation marks can then be translated together.

Responsibility boundary

Translation support is not company-registration legal advice

This distinction is intentionally prominent because the page addresses foreign founders.

Client and adviser

Choose the legal structure, filing strategy and current registration package.

Rocketperevod

Reviews files for translation scope, repeated data, layout and agreed formalities.

Partner notary

Performs the notarial act where that route is selected and legally available.

Registration authority

Controls acceptance and the registration outcome; neither is guaranteed by translation.

Data integrity

What must stay consistent across the founder file

We flag differences for clarification rather than inventing a legal correction.

A

Names and transliteration

Founder, director, representative and company names are aligned to supplied references.

B

Registration data

Entity form, numbers, issue dates, issuing authority and current status are retained.

C

Ownership and powers

Shares, beneficial ownership, appointment and representative authority are cross-checked.

D

Attachments and marks

Annexes, seals, notarial certificates, apostilles and legalisation pages remain connected.

Current rates and estimates

File-based quote for the complete founder package

The final cost and schedule depend on the language direction, number and size of documents, scans, repeated text, tables, authentication pages, certification and delivery. We do not price a legal registration service.

English-language translation575 ₽ per standard page
Agency certification400 ₽ per document
Partner-notary certification800 ₽ per document

These are current catalogue starting points in roubles, not a promised total. The complete company file, layout and required formalities control the final quote and schedule.

Registration-document flow

From adviser checklist to translated package

The route is agreed before production begins.

1

Checklist

Get the current list and format from the Russian notary or adviser.

2

Authentication

Confirm and complete issuing-country apostille/legalisation if required.

3

Files

Send every source, attachment, mark and approved name spelling.

4

Scope

Approve translation, layout, certification, cost, schedule and delivery.

5

Package

Translation and review follow the agreed document-by-document plan.

Avoid rework

Registration-package risks to resolve early

The adviser or notary should resolve legal questions; we surface translation and data issues.

No current checklist

The required founder and corporate documents can vary with the structure and filing route.

Authentication started after translation

Confirm apostille/legalisation before translation so all marks can be included together.

Name spellings conflict

Share passport spelling and any Russian spelling already accepted for connected filings.

Translation was treated as legal review

Legal sufficiency, structure and registration strategy remain with the lawyer, notary or adviser.

FAQ

Company-registration document questions

The current Russian notary/adviser requirement remains controlling.

Which documents are required to register a company in Russia?

The package depends on the founder structure and filing route. Obtain the current checklist from the Russian notary, lawyer or registration adviser.

Can you advise on the legal structure?

No. We provide translation and agreed document-formality coordination, not corporate legal advice or filing strategy.

Should apostille or legalisation be completed before translation?

Ask the Russian receiver first. If required, it is normally completed in the country that issued the document, then the source and all marks are translated together.

Is a scan enough to obtain a quote?

A readable complete scan normally starts review. An original may later be required for a specific notarial, authentication or filing procedure.

Can a foreign company be the shareholder?

That is a legal-structure question for your adviser. If the route is confirmed, we can review the supplied corporate-shareholder file for translation scope.

Does translation guarantee registration?

No. Translation supports the agreed submission; the notary, adviser and registration authority control legal sufficiency and outcome.
