To complete your application, we'll need you to upload company documents, answer a few questions, and verify shareholders who own more than 5% of the company.

You will need to upload:

• Certificate of Incorporation
• Articles of Association
• Register of Directors 
• Register of Shareholders
• Certificate of Good Standing - Optional

Where to find this documentation:

Certificate of Incorporation (Visura Camerale)

Proof that the company has been legally formed and registered as a corporate entity. It confirms the company's name, registration number, date of incorporation, and legal form.

This document is not issued once at incorporation and kept permanently — it must be requested each time it is needed, as it reflects your company's current registration status. You can obtain it via registroimprese.it or through any Camera di Commercio (Chamber of Commerce) office. It must carry the official Chamber of Commerce stamp. This document must be dated within 90 days of your submission to us. 

Articles of Association (Atto Costitutivo e Statuto)
The founding document that defines the company's purpose, structure, and internal governance 

In Italy, incorporation requires the involvement of a notary, so your Atto Costitutivo and Statuto will have been notarized at the time of incorporation. You received this document from your founding notary. If you no longer have it, contact your founding notary to request a certified copy, or retrieve it from the Registro delle Imprese where it is filed. It must be signed by both the notary and the founding shareholders or legal representative. This is a historical document; the date on it will be your incorporation date. 

Register of Directors (Visura Camerale: Organi sociali section)
A formal record of the individuals legally authorised to manage and represent the company. It confirms who holds executive responsibility and signing authority.

Directors and legal representatives of Italian companies are listed directly on the Visura Camerale, so the same document you provide for the Certificate of Incorporation will also cover this requirement. Please ensure the document you submit is dated within 90 days of your submission

Register of Shareholders (Visura Camerale — Elenco Soci section)
A record of who owns the company and in what proportion. It identifies the ultimate beneficial owners and their respective shareholdings.

The shareholder list is included directly within the Visura Camerale under the Elenco Soci section, so the same document you provide for the Certificate of Incorporation and Register of Directors will also cover this requirement. Please ensure the Visura Camerale you submit is downloaded within 90 days of your submission to us. 
 

Certificate of Good Standing - Optional
Confirmation that the company is legally active, compliant, and in good standing with relevant authorities. It assures third parties that the company has not been dissolved or struck off.

You can upload the Visura Camerale.
 

Shareholders:

Each shareholder who owns more than 5% will have their identity checked (KYC). Once you have submitted your business documents, you will add the shareholders.

Each shareholder will receive an email to complete their KYC. They will need to upload their passport and proof of address dated within the last 3 months.

Once all business documentation and shareholders' identities have been checked, your account will be approved. Usually taking 1-3 business days.
