What is a Share Certificate
A share certificate is a document that certifies the possession of shares in a company limited by shares. Share certificates are sent out when shares are granted and made available to new shareholders at the time of incorporation and/or after incorporation, or when ownership of existing shares is transferred from one individual to another after company formation. Shareholders are required to receive a share certificate right after they buy at least one share. A copy of all issued share certificates must be kept by businesses for their records.
Delivering your Share Certificate(s)
A company is required to deliver share certificates to the relevant shareholder within a specified time frame after the shares are allotted or transferred and can take anywhere from 2 days to 14 days. If it expected to be longer then you will be notified.
