UNANIMOUS WRITTEN RESOLUTION TEMPLATE FAQ

What is a unanimous written resolution?

A Unanimous Written Resolution is a document signed by all required decision-makers (such as directors, shareholders, or LLC members) to approve an action without holding a formal meeting. It creates an official record while saving time.

Who can use a unanimous written resolution?

Corporations can use it for board or shareholder actions if allowed by bylaws and applicable law. LLCs can use it for member or manager actions if allowed by the operating agreement. This template includes flexible options so you can label the approving group correctly.

What types of actions can be approved this way?

Common examples include: opening a bank account, appointing officers, entering major contracts, approving share issuances, authorizing loans, or adopting policies. Any action that normally requires a vote can often be approved by unanimous consent in writing.

Does it need to list a meeting or quorum?

No meeting is held. Instead, the resolution states that unanimous consent is given in writing and is effective as of a specified date. This template includes that language and a signature block for all required signers.

Is notarization required?

Usually not, but banks or counterparties may request it. This template includes an optional notarization section.
