Articles of Incorporation for Stock Corporations
Incorporate a domestic stock corporation
The Articles of Incorporation is a document needed to form and register a corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the Philippines. The Articles of Incorporation acts as the charter of the corporation and contains its most basic details (i.e. name, address, purpose).
Once the Articles of Incorporation and the required supporting documents are submitted to the SEC, the SEC will issue the Certificate of Incorporation formally recognizing the corporation as an artificial person created by law (i.e. given legal personality).
Please note that the SEC may require additional supporting documents to register the corporation such as; (a) cover sheet (available here); (b) name verification slip (may be secured online from the SEC or at the SEC’s Name Verification Unit); (c) by-laws; (d) treasurer’s affidavit; and, if necessary (e) endorsement from other government agencies. Please check here for more information regarding these requirements that may apply to your business.

By-Laws for Stock Corporations
Prepare the corporation's internal rules for its governance and management of stockholders & directors
In addition to the Articles of Incorporation which is required for every corporation, the corporation must also have By-Laws. The Articles of Incorporation is the corporation’s charter and contains its most basic information. On the other hand, the By-Laws contain provisions for the corporation’s internal government and for the management of its stockholders as well as those having the direction, management and control of the corporation.
The Revised Corporation Code of the Philippines allows the By-Laws to be submitted to the SEC after the issuance of the Certificate of Incorporation. In practice though, the By-Laws are submitted together with the Articles of Incorporation for approval by the SEC.
If the By-Laws will be submitted after incorporation, the approval of stockholders representing at least a majority of the outstanding capital stock must be obtained. The approval of the majority of directors must also be obtained. If the By-Laws will be submitted prior to incorporation, the By-Laws should be approved and signed by all the incorporators and submitted to the SEC together with the Articles of Incorporation. This By-Laws is intended to be submitted together with the Articles of Incorporation as is usual practice.
