With this new Service, both the application for certificate issuance , excerpts and copies of acts and data registered in G.C.R. (GEMI) and the issuance of them is made exclusively online . This Service was implemented in application of the provisions of article 8 of law 4919/2022 as in force and of the Joint Ministerial Decision K2-4946/2014.

According to these provisions, anyone interested to acquire a certificate or an act or data copy registered in G.C.R.

Note that this service is available to anyone interested to a certificate, regardless if they are registered in G.C.R. themselves or not.

The following certificates will be available online for all legal entities that are liable to G.C.R. (GEMI):

This Service was implemented according to the provisions of Articles 7 and 8 in conjunction with Article 4 of Law 4919/2022 as in force and the Joint Ministerial Decisions K2-4946/2014 and 79752/2015. Thanks to this service, each company, if it so wishes, will carry out the entire process of submitting a registration request to the G.C.R., filing the necessary documents and paying the relevant fees through a suitable environment and with special user codes and access to the G.C.R. system, which will be issued and granted by the G.C.R. Central Service. Similarly, the process of verification, completion of registration and issuing a summary notice of registration will also be carried out electronically. In particular for Public Limited Companies, the procedures for the transmission of the documents of the Public Limited Companies to the Regions for the exercise of supervisory control and for the issuance of relevant decisions or documents, where and when required, and the receipt of the relevant decisions or documents of the Regions will also be carried out electronically.

Regarding the submission of registration applications and the relevant supporting documents to the "Electronic Submission of Registration Applications to G.C.R. (GEMI)", we inform the Companies that:

Registration applications and supporting documents can be submitted online in digital form, without the use of the issuers electronic signature of each document , thus saving significant time from waiting in face-to-face transactions at various physical Services (GEMI, Regions etc). At the same time, the obligation of those who use the above Service to submit in printed form , by post or by simple arrival, in the protocol of G.C.R. (GEMI) Services, the supporting documents related to the registration application is abolished .

We note that the use of the "Service for Electronic application for registration submission in GEMI" is not mandatory for all applications and for all legal forms. However, especially for limited liability companies, even if the previous way of submitting a registration application is followed, i.e. by attending a G.C.R. (GEMI) Service, the submitted documents must be in digital form, as explicitly stated in the last paragraph of par. 3 of Article 7 of Law No. 4919/2022. Finally, we note that the Service will be gradually enriched with more registration applications with the aim of eventually covering all types of applications for all corporate forms.
