Formal Minutes are essential corporate documents required under Qatar's legal framework to record and formalize decisions made during official meetings. They serve as the primary legal evidence of corporate decision-making and are particularly crucial for demonstrating compliance with Qatar's Commercial Companies Law and Corporate Governance Code. These minutes must be maintained in accordance with specific local requirements regarding content, format, and retention. The document is typically used to record board meetings, shareholder meetings, committee meetings, and other significant corporate gatherings where formal decisions are made. Given Qatar's increasing focus on corporate governance and transparency, proper maintenance of Formal Minutes is essential for regulatory compliance and good corporate governance practices.
