Documents
- Companies need a copy of an extract showing that the company legally exists. It must list the legal representatives and the tax number or VAT number. The extract must not be older than six months.
- Every page of that copy must be marked "TRUE WITH THE ORIGINAL", with a company stamp and a signature.
- After you apply, you'll receive an application form. This form must be signed by the designated person, meaning the company's legal representative or the administrative contact, and bear a company stamp.
- Companies may also need to provide the deed of incorporation, a trademark registration and an identity document of the contact person. For individuals, this means a passport or an identity document issued by an EU member state.
- PDF copies of the documents are checked first. After that, you need to send all original documents to the registry by post.
Good to know when registering
- A registration is only complete once the required documents have been submitted and the originals have arrived at the registry by post.
