»Applying for your LEI is simple: Start executing secure financial transactions in just a few steps with the Legal Entity Identifier«
As one of few official LEI issuing authorities accredited by GLEIF, we support you in applying for your LEI, renewing your LEI or changing your provider.
Whether you wish to make notifications to the national register or report important transactions, only an active Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) ensures you can fulfill your corporate obligations and execute legally compliant financial transactions.
Since 3 January 2018, European companies participating in securities trading have been obliged to maintain a Legal Entity Identifier for transactions and for fulfilling their legal reporting obligations.

Maybe you have already applied for an LEI on our LEI portal and you wish to renew it? Or you wish to transfer your already purchased Legal Entity Identifier to the EQS LEI Manager so that it can be renewed quickly and cost-effectively for you?
