Corporations schedule formal meetings in advance and use the appropriate notice of meeting to notify all concerned. It is sent out well in advance to ensure maximum attendance.
However, if you don't need to know when the meeting is taking place for any reason, you can use a Waiver of Notice of Meeting to waive your right to receive the notice.
What Is a Waiver of Notice of Meeting?
A meeting participant can choose to waive their right to receive the notice for any reason.
For example, if you know the exact time, date, and location of the meeting, you don't need a reminder. You can instead use a waiver form to forego your right to be notified of the meeting. In that sense, executing a Waiver of Notice of Meeting doesn't mean you're excusing yourself from attendance of the meeting.
Other Names for Waiver of Notice of Meeting
Depending on your state, a Waiver of Notice of Meeting may also be known as:
- Waiver of Notice
- Waiver of Notice for Meeting of Corporation
- Waiver of Meeting Notice
- Waiver of Notice for Board of Directors Meeting
- Waiver of Notice of Annual Meeting

Who Needs a Waiver of Notice of Meeting?
A Waiver of Notice of Meeting can be used by anyone required to attend a corporate meeting. You can use this waiver for special sessions as well. For a meeting that isn't previously scheduled, rather than notifying everyone, you can arrange to have all the attendees sign a waiver and hold the meeting, perhaps as soon as the next day.
