A grant agreement or memorandum of understanding — what should you know about entity-related requirements?

The scope of this answer is “A grant agreement or memorandum of understanding”, so it flags what usually causes documents like this to be rejected before summarising the general practice. Grant proposals to foreign donors usually require an attached results framework and indicators. Public-charity status certificates expire, so check the date before a grant submission. The specifics here are document type: Grantagr, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are grant · agreement · memorandum · understanding. The biggest risk in cases like this is doing the certification steps out of order, which forces a restart. The condition most often overlooked is that name spelling must match across every document in the set. Before starting, keep a digital copy of every page, including seals and signatures, then make sure document numbers, issue dates and issuing-office names match across the set, then ask in advance which category of certified translator the destination accepts. If multiple certified sets are needed, order them all in the first round to avoid re-queuing. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. Keep a copy of every source document plus the receipt or docket from each step. If the receiving body confirmed its requirements by email, keep that message with the file. Project reports used for grants should keep budget figures in the original currency units. Board resolutions must record the quorum before they work as evidence of authority. After filing, follow up on the cycle the office states rather than waiting past the deadline. Thai foundations and associations are juristic persons formed under the Civil and Commercial Code — foundations under the provisions beginning at section 110 and associations under those beginning at section 78 — and are registered with the Registrar under the Department of Provincial Administration, Ministry of Interior. Overseas grant-makers routinely ask for the registration certificate, the deed of foundation or the articles, and the current list of committee members. A standard overseas grant package is the registration evidence, the articles or deed of foundation, the list of committee members, audited financial statements, the annual report, the project proposal, the project budget and a power of attorney for whoever signs the grant agreement. Every document is translated in full, including stamps and signatures, and the figures in the financial statements must agree with the project budget across the whole set. ILC handles documents only: translation, certified translation, coordinating a notarial services attorney and running certification at the Department of Consular Affairs and embassies. It is not a tax adviser, an auditor or a fundraising agent, it does not warrant that any organisation will be announced as a public charitable organisation, and it guarantees no decision by the Revenue Department, the foundation and association registrar, AMLO, a bank, a grant-maker or any foreign authority. Cost and lead time depend on page count, how many certified sets are needed, the target language and the steps the receiving party requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
