Notice of Meeting

A Notice of Meeting is a document used to notify certain persons of a scheduled meeting. It can be used for regular (annual) or special meetings of the stockholders or board of directors of a stock corporation or the members or board of trustees of a non-stock corporation.

A Notice of Meeting informs the recipient of the date, time, and place of the meeting. If the meeting is for the stockholders or members of the corporation, the meeting should be held in the city or municipality where the principal office of the corporation is located. If practicable, it should be held in the principal office of the corporation. If the meeting is for the board of directors or the board of trustees, the meeting may be held anywhere in or outside of the Philippines, unless the by-laws of the corporation provides otherwise.
