I just wanted to update all who are still to register/re-register their companies. The Commercial Register now is 18 days behind the normal deadline for application processing. As the end of the year comes closer, the company registration will  take longer. The solution would be that the Commercial Register to hire more people to process the applications.

The registration, re-registration and changes in the files of the companies is delaying again. The reason is that the Commercial register receives more applications than they can handle. The result is one and a half weeks delay in processing the applications. This is valid for all type of applications, no matter if they are for registration, re-registration of companies or just application for filing changes to the companies files. I wonder what will happen in the end of year 2010, when thousands of companies will file their applications at once. The Commercial register will suffer a lot and most probably the business will suffer too. that’s why they need to change their management and hire more employees who will process the applications and the documents. The lawyers will need to explain the situation to their clients, as the deadline for re-registration is coming and this issue will arise.

Those of you who have companies registered before 1 Jan 2008 and haven’t done the re-registration, need to hurry. The Commercial Register Act regulates the deadline for re-registration is 31 Dec 2010.

If you fail to re-register on time, your company will be liquidated by the court and official state liquidator will be appointed. The consequence of this will be that your company’s assets will be sold on public tender and the liquidator’s salary will be paid out of that assets.

Don’t miss the deadline!  You can loose your property and you will bear liability for all expenses made in court for your company liquidation.
