Amendment 46 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 7
(7) Enabling the fully online registration of companies and branches and the fully online filing of documents and information would allow companies to use digital tools in their contacts with competent authorities of Member States. In order to enhance trust, Member States should ensure that secure electronic identification and the use of trust services is possible for national as well as cross- border users in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council34 . Furthermore, in order to enable cross- border electronic identification, Member States should set up electronic identification schemes which provide for authorised electronic identification means. Such national schemes would be used as a basis for the recognition of electronic identification means issued in another Member State. In order to ensure the high level of trust in cross-border situations, only electronic identification means which comply with Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 should be recognised. However, Member States may also recognise other identification means such as a scanned copy of a passport. In any event, this Directive should only oblige Member States to enable online registration of companies and their branches and online filing by Union citizens through the recognition of their electronic identification means. _________________ 34 Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 July 2014 on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market and repealing Directive 1999/93/EC (OJ L 257, 28.8.2014, p. 73).

Proposal for a directive
Recital 13
(13) Furthermore, in order to tackle fraud, money laundering, and company hijacking and to provide safeguards for the reliability and trustworthiness of documents and information contained within national registers, provisions concerning the online registration of companies and their branches should also includeand subsequent online filing should also include legality controls and controls on the identity and legal capacity of persons seeking to establish a company or branch or to file documents and information. However, the means and methods to achieve these controls should be left to Member States to develop and adopt. Those rules could include, amongst others, verification by means of video-conference or other online means that provide a real- time audio-visual connection. To that effect Member States should be able to require the involvement of notaries or lawyers as a part of the online registration and filing process, however, such involvement should not prevent the completion of the registration and filing procedure in its entirety online.
