Common Document Questions

Quick answers on LEI registration paperwork and requirements.

What documents are needed for a standard company?

For most registered companies, we only need the entity name and registration number. We fetch the rest from the official registry.

When is a Letter of Authorization (LOA) required?

An LOA is needed if the person applying is not listed as a director or legal signatory in the public records. It confirms they have the authority to apply on behalf of the entity.

What if my entity is not in a public database?

If your entity (like a Trust or Charity) isn’t in a public registry, you must provide a deed, certificate, or establishing document to prove its legal existence.

Do I need to send original copies?

No. Digital scans or PDF copies of your documents are accepted for the application process. Original physical copies are not required.

What is Level 2 data?

This refers to information about your parent companies. You may need to provide annual reports or consolidated accounts as evidence of the parent-child relationship.
