👨‍⚕️Second Director

When establishing a new B.V. through the Digital Notary, it is essential to verify the identity of the second director. Unlike UBOs, the second director will be automatically added to the shareholder environment. Here's how the process works:

Second Director Identity Verification

  1. Notification Email:

    • The second director will receive an email from the Digital Notary requesting them to verify their identity. This email will contain detailed instructions and a secure link to the verification platform.

  2. Identity Verification Steps:

    • The second director will be asked to provide personal identification documents to confirm their identity. This can include a passport, driver's license, or national ID card.

    • They will also need to provide proof of address, such as a utility bill or bank statement, showing their name and current residential address.

  3. Marital Status Information:

    • The founder is required to provide the marital status of the second director. This information is necessary for the notary's records and legal requirements.

    • The options for marital status include:

      • Unmarried and not registered as a partner in the sense of registered partnership

      • Married

      • Registered as a partner

  4. Secure Submission:

    • The verification platform is secure and compliant with all relevant data protection regulations. The second director can confidently upload their documents and marital status information knowing their data is protected.

  5. Verification Confirmation:

    • Once the documents and information are submitted, the Digital Notary will review and verify the details. This ensures compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

Adding to Shareholder Environment

  1. Automatic Addition:

    • Upon successful verification, the second director will be automatically added to the shareholder environment of the new B.V. This inclusion ensures they are recognized in the company's official records.

  2. Shareholder Rights and Responsibilities:

    • As a part of the shareholder environment, the second director will have access to relevant company information and will be able to participate in shareholder activities and decisions as stipulated by the company's statutes and governance policies.

Keeping the Second Director Informed

  1. Status Updates:

    • The second director will be kept informed about the status of their verification through email notifications. They will receive confirmation once their identity and marital status have been successfully verified.

  2. Support:

    • Should the second director encounter any issues during the verification process, they can contact the Digital Notary support team for assistance. The support team is available to help with any questions or technical difficulties.

By following these steps, the Digital Notary ensures that the second director is properly verified and integrated into the shareholder environment, maintaining the integrity and legal compliance of the new B.V. establishment process. This thorough verification process helps protect the company and its stakeholders from potential legal and financial risks.
