Under the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622), Hong Kong corporations do not have a 'legal representative' role; executive authority vests in the Board of Directors (Section 643). Because BIRCH CREDIT LIMITED was incorporated within the past year (2026-04-01) and its first Annual Return (Form NAR1) is not yet due, its founding directors, company secretary, and initial share capital allotment are officially recorded in its Incorporation Form (Form NNC1), supplemented by any subsequent Return of Allotment (Form NSC1) or Notice of Change of Director (Form ND2A).

Because BIRCH CREDIT LIMITED is newly incorporated (under 1 year), pursuant to Section 662 of the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622), its first Annual Return (Form NAR1) will be due within 42 days after its 1st incorporation anniversary. Official registry records confirm that 3 statutory incorporation dossier(s) are officially archived (latest statutory filing indexed on 2026-04-01: Form NNC1 - Incorporation Form (Company Limited by Shares) (English)).

Under Section 127 of the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622), Hong Kong has abolished the mandatory use of a metallic common seal; BIRCH CREDIT LIMITED (CRN: Pending registration / 8-digit BRN: 80120028) may lawfully execute a commercial contract without a common seal by having the document signed on its behalf by its sole director (for a single-director company) or by two directors / one director and the company secretary, and under Cap. 622B Section 4 must state its registered legal name on all contracts, transaction instruments, and official websites. Because commercial rubber chops are not registered with the Hong Kong Government, counterparties must retrieve the latest Annual Return (Form NAR1), director change notices (Form ND2A), and Register of Charges filings (Form NM1 under Cap. 622 s.334) from the Companies Registry to verify authorized signatory directors and asset pledges.
