The Nonprofit Certificate of Incorporation is a fundamental legal document required for establishing a nonprofit organization in Pakistan. It must be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) under the provisions of the Companies Act 2017, specifically Section 42. This document is essential when founding a nonprofit entity that will operate for charitable, religious, cultural, educational, social, or other benevolent purposes. It contains crucial information about the organization's structure, governance, and objectives, serving as the primary reference for the organization's legal existence and operations. The certificate must comply with SECP regulations and include specific provisions regarding the non-distribution of profits, limitation of liability, and application of funds solely for nonprofit purposes. This document is particularly important as it establishes the organization's tax-exempt status and creates a legal framework for receiving donations and grants.
