Context
It began on a freelance marketplace as a simple apostille question and became a managed project: corporate documents for use abroad, several U.S. steps and a fixed overseas deadline.
The challenge
- Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association to be executed in wet ink
- Notarization, then an apostille from the New Jersey state office in Trenton
- Originals to stay under control from signature to shipment
- A client in another time zone who needed to see progress at every step
What TRSG did
- Reviewed the documents and the destination's requirements before anything was signed
- Organized wet-ink execution and notarization
- Submitted and collected the apostilles in Trenton
- Kept custody of the originals, sent scanbacks, then shipped with tracking
Outcome
Scanbacks of the apostilled documents reached the client within 48 hours, the Indian company application was filed on time and approved within the deadline, and the originals followed with a tracking number. The client never had to travel to the United States.

As a second-time founder, opening my next company in India posed significant challenges due to their strict apostille and notarization requirements. I am based in South Korea half of the year and while working on my company incorporation, my application was rejected due to the MOA and AOA needing further verification with my wet-ink signatures, apostille and notarization with a public notary based in the States. I did not have the time to fly back and forth so I luckily searched and found Tanim among a few other certified Notary Public professionals. He was the only one that actually guided me, asking thorough questions to understand more clearly about my situation. As I was also under a time crunch, he quickly assessed, provided a plan and offered me a reasonable quote I was happy with. Working cross-border on such a delicate and extremely time-sensitive task is no small feat but Tanim was professional and stayed in constant communication with me throughout the process. I received my scanbacks of the apostilled documents within 48 hours and was able to submit to the Indian government on time. My Indian company application was officially approved within the deadline and I am so grateful for Tanim. He's diligent, detail-oriented and compassionate, exactly the partner you want to do business with for these company matters. I highly recommend his services and will be sure to continue working with Tanim in the years to come!
