Application for Renewal


   Main page > Sector Recognition > Application for Renewal

    Legal grounds
    According to Article 31 of the Law no. 12/2000 “Voter Registration Law” republished in full by the Chief Executive’s Dispatch no. 390/2008, the recognition is valid for five years starting from the date of recognition by the Chief Executive. Legal persons that have been recognized as belonging to the industrial, commercial and financial sector, the labour sector or the professional sector must submit their renewal applications to the CPCS within 150 to 90 days before expiration.

    If a legal person fails to submit a renewal application within that period, its recognition will lose effect upon expiration. In other words, if the legal person intends to renew its recognition, an application should be made to the CPCS no later than 90 days prior to the expiry date of recognition.
