Good to know: Banks, BIR, LGUs and clients ask for this to confirm who may sign for a corporation. It is signed by the Corporate Secretary and usually notarized. Sole proprietors (DTI) do not need it — use an SPA instead. Template only — not legal advice, and using it does not create a lawyer–client relationship. For property, large amounts, employment disputes or court matters, have a lawyer review it before signing.
How to use it (step by step)
- 1Fill in the boxes. Leave a box empty if you prefer to write it by hand — it becomes a blank line.
- 2Check the preview (on the right, or below on a phone). It updates as you type.
- 3Press “Download Word” to edit it in Word / Google Docs, or “Download PDF” for a file ready to print or send. Read every line before signing.
- 4Sign it (and have it notarized if the “Good to know” box says so). Bring a valid ID to the notary.
Words to know

- App signing / keystore
- Every app is signed with a private key (kept in a keystore file). Updates must be signed with the same key, so never lose it.
- Principal
- The amount you originally borrowed, without the interest.
- Chargeback / dispute
- When a customer asks their bank to reverse a payment. Too many hurt a business.
