Get ready for the Guyana Development Bank.

In Guyana, a statutory declaration is a formal written statement affirmed as true before an authorised person — such as a Justice of the Peace, Commissioner of Oaths, or Notary Public. Knowingly making a false statutory declaration is a criminal offence.

Formal lending applications — including, potentially, an application to the Guyana Development Bank — may require you to declare the accuracy of the financial and business information you submit, whether through a statutory declaration or a similar sworn statement. The Guyana Development Bank Act 2026 is confirmed to carry a penalty of GYD 5–10 million for knowingly providing false information in an application. Beyond that penalty, the Act's exact documentation and declaration requirements have not been independently confirmed by Mekit.GY.

Treat every figure and claim in your application as something you may be formally asked to attest to. Verify the specific requirement with GDB directly, or with a legal or notary professional, before you submit.

A short check against the Guyana Development Bank Act 2026 — see whether the no-registration Quick Loan or the SME Loan is the right fit before you apply.

A secure upload space for identity, registration, compliance, financial, and management documents an application is likely to require.

Not a numeric score — an objective completion check across your funding-readiness interview, financials, business plan, funding request, and documents, plus any issues to resolve before export.

Practice the kind of questions the Bank is likely to weigh, and get a coaching-toned debrief from Rose.
