Offices usually want the consent of all partners. If your deed says that one partner can sign for the firm, attach that page of the deed.
Is a partnership consent letter needed for a sole proprietor?
No. A sole proprietor signs for himself or herself.
Is this the same as a board resolution?
No. A board resolution is for a company. For a company, the licence office asks for a copy of the board resolution authorising a director.
