Question 1

Who can order a Cyprus company certificate?

Accepted Answer

Anyone can order. The Cyprus register is public, and the Department of Registrar of Companies does not restrict who may request a certificate. You do not need to be a director, shareholder, lawyer or employee of the company.

Question 2

Can I order a certificate for any company, partnership or business name?

Accepted Answer

Yes, provided the entity is — or was — on the Cyprus register. We can issue certificates for active companies, struck-off companies, partnerships, business names and overseas companies with a Cyprus branch.

Question 3

Can I order certificates from outside Cyprus?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We deliver digitally, so certificates can be ordered from any country. Most clients use them for international banking, litigation, due diligence, tender bids and foreign registry filings.

Question 4

What company information do I need to provide?

Accepted Answer

At a minimum, the company name or official registration number (e.g. HE 252407). We can locate the record from either. If you are unsure of the exact name, use the search bar to find the company first, then click Order certificate.

Question 5

What if the company has a similar name to another company?

Accepted Answer

Always provide the registration number (HE number) when you can. This eliminates any ambiguity. If you only have a name, we will confirm the company with you before submitting the order to the Registrar.

Question 6

Do I need to upload documents or proof of identity?

Accepted Answer

For standard certificates, no. Some research products, such as the Due Diligence Report, may require a brief call or written scope confirmation before fieldwork begins. If any ID is needed, we will ask for it directly.

Question 7

How long does a certificate take?

Accepted Answer

Most Registrar certificates are ready within one to two business days. Electronic profiles and reports are usually delivered the same business day. Apostille, translation or notarisation can add one to three business days.

Question 8

How are certificates delivered?

Accepted Answer

Digital PDF delivery is standard. Hard copies, apostille, sworn translation and notarised copies can be arranged on request. We will contact you after checkout to confirm the exact format you need.

Question 9

Can I cancel or change an order after it has been submitted?

Accepted Answer

You can cancel or change an order before we file it with the Registrar. Once an application has been submitted to the Department of Registrar of Companies, the order cannot be changed or refunded because government fees are paid at that point.

Question 10

What happens if the company is struck off or dissolved?

Accepted Answer

We will first check the live status. If a certificate cannot be issued because the entity is struck off, we will offer a Certificate of Strike Off or a full refund if no certificate exists.

Question 11

Which certificates can I order?

Accepted Answer

We offer Certificate of Good Standing, Certificate of Directors, Certificate of Shareholders, Certificate of Capital, Certificate of Strike Off, and bundled profiles such as the Cyprus Company Profile and KYB Pack.

Question 12

Are the certificates official documents?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Certificates are issued by the Department of Registrar of Companies and Intellectual Property. They are official extracts of the public register, not internal summaries.
