MISA annual updates and commercial-register confirmation
Keep MISA information current, submit the commercial register's annual confirmation and track sector-permit renewals separately. Check the applicable dates in each official account.
Annual update and confirmation are different tasks
MISA provides an annual registration-update service. The commercial register has a separate annual confirmation process. Track these alongside sector permits, municipal licences and staff residency records; they do not share one renewal deadline.
Prepare a consistent company file
Collect the current company and ownership details, registered activities and changes since the last submission. Compare these with the commercial register, National Address, tax and bank records. Use the current service checklist to identify supporting documents before arranging translations or attestations.
Build the calendar from official accounts
Record the due date shown for each service, the person responsible, the documents needed and any fees confirmed in the portal. Start gathering information before the due date, but do not assume that a fixed preparation period or processing time applies to every entity.
Respond to notices before a suspension
Review official notices and resolve missing confirmations or inconsistent records through the relevant authority. The Commercial Register Law provides for suspension when annual confirmation is not submitted within the statutory period. Check the entity’s actual status and the applicable remedy before relying on it for another transaction.
Assign an owner to each record
Keep a shared register of submissions, receipts and next actions. A change in ownership, activity or address may require amendments as well as the annual update. RDO can coordinate the administrative file and follow-up; the authority decides whether the submission meets its requirements.
