Royal Charters

A Royal Charter is a formal grant issued by a monarch that officially establishes an organization, city, or company, giving it certain rights and privileges. Historically used to recognize institutions like universities, colonies, or corporations, it acts as a legal authorization, affirming their purposes and authority. Today, Royal Charters are rare but still serve as a mark of prestige and official recognition, ensuring the organization’s status, governance, and legitimacy within the framework of the law.
