Commercial Register
|
| The Commercial
Register was instituted by State Ordinance of November 6, 1944, and the
last revised text of this so-called “Trade Register” Ordinance is
published in the Official Gazette of 1991 No. GT 15.
This Ordinance prescribes that any undertaking, which
carries on some business, must be registered. The registration of such
business must be effected not later than one week after its initial start.
A commercial company is considered as established when business with
respect to the public commences.
All types of enterprises in which any business is
conducted by anyone have to register. Partnerships, corporations and
cooperative societies are thus also considered to be carrying on an
enterprise. |

|
Enterprises pertaining to bodies of public law, minors,
street-vendors, craftsmen with a limited number of employees, gardeners,
farmers and fishermen, are exempted. The “Trade Register” Ordinance
prescribes that the following important and legal information on the
company be filed:
 | the type of business entity; |
| the statutory name and/or name under which it is
doing business; |
| the business activities; |
| the address of business; |
| the personal data of the owners and/or (managing and
