This decision arises from the need to upgrade the EU company law, in order to face the new economic and social challenges of an increasingly digital world.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of this proposal is to simplify transactions between companies and to promote business transparency, reducing the administrative burdens. The new features to be introduced are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the application of the \u201conce-only (una tantum) principle\u201d, which implies that companies should submit information only once, and not every time they set up a branch or a company in another Member State. For this purpose, the exchange of the relevant companies\u2019 information can take place through the Business Registers Interconnection System (BRIS);<\/li>\n<li>an EU Company Certificate which includes a basic set of companies\u2019 information, available free of charge in all EU languages and recognised in all EU Member States;<\/li>\n<li>a multi-lingual standard model for a digital EU power of attorney, which authorizes a person to represent the company in another Member State;<\/li>\n<li>the removal of some traditional formalities i.e. the apostille or certified translations for corporate documents.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These new rules lead to make publicly available at EU level the most important companies\u2019 information, allowing a search through BRIS, the beneficial ownership register and the insolvency register. Therefore, in order to make sure that the companies\u2019 data included in these registers is accurate, reliable and up to date, it will be necessary to verify in advance the data to be entered into these registers.<\/p>\n<p>This proposal represents a second step on the digitalisation of company law and it is complementary to the Digitalisation Directive (EU) 2019\/1151, which introduced the possibility to set up companies and to carry out company law procedures online.<\/p>\n<p>The European Parliament and the Council will now discuss this proposal. If the European Union decided to adopt this new directive, each EU Member State will have two years to transpose it into national legislation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On March 29, 2023, the European Commission proposed to adopt a new directive on&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41,"featured_media":42139,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4166],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42138","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-corporate-m-a-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
