ARTICLE OF INCORPORATION of Nepal is different from ARTICLE OF

Name of incorporation, purpose of corporation, name of director and duration. According to the

Non – profit primer: A guide Book for Land Trusts (1989) the minimum actual number of

Incorporators and the number of Directors depends on state's nonprofit incorporation

requirements that can be obtained from the Secretary of State or known to law offices or

published in nonprofit guidebooks. It is advisable to have at least three directors.

Also note that if the initial directors are named in the Articles of Incorporation, it is not necessary

to have incorporators. However, having both incorporators and initial directors may be advisable

if the nonprofit wishes to demonstrate broad community support. Any incorporators and all

named directors must sign the Articles of Incorporation.
