Applying for entry in the commercial register for EEIGs
Description
A European Economic Interest Grouping (EEIG) may be formed by companies and other entities governed by public or private law in accordance with the national law of a Member State. It may also be formed by natural persons who exercise an industrial, commercial, craft, agricultural or professional activity in the Community or provide other services there.
The articles of association of an EEIG must contain the name, registered office, object and, where applicable, the name, registration number and place of registration of each member of the association and the duration of the association, unless it is indefinite.
This agreement must be entered in the register provided for this purpose by each Member State. Registration shall confer full legal capacity on the EEIG throughout the Community.
Any formation or dissolution of an EEIG is also published in the Official Journal of the European Union for information purposes.
If information about your company has changed, you must have the commercial register entry amended. Details include, for example
- Registered office
- legal form
- Authorized representatives
An EEIG must consist of at least two members from different member states, but may not employ more than 500 people.
- Registration
- Foundation agreement
- Certificate of appointment of the managing directors
Fixed fees are charged for entries in the commercial register in accordance with the Commercial Register Fees Ordinance.
The registration court must decide on the entry immediately after receipt of the application. If all documents are available and no objections from the court are necessary, entries are usually made within a few working days.
The responsibility lies with the Stendal Local Court as the central register court.
You must contact a notary.
To submit an application, contact a notary.
- The notary will advise you on how to formulate the application.
- The application is made exclusively by electronic means and a publicly notarized document is created for this purpose.

The purpose of an EEIG is to facilitate or develop the economic activity of its members and to improve or increase the results of this activity.
The purpose of the association is not to make a profit for itself. The activities of the EEIG must be related to the economic activities of its members and may only be ancillary to them.
