Simple note of the commercial register

What is it?

It is an official report that provides basic and updated information about a company registered in the commercial register. The simple note contains key data about the company’s legal identity, organizational structure, and financial standing, allowing third parties to access relevant details in a clear and accessible format.

The information typically included in the simple note comprises the company’s legal name, the names of its directors, the corporate purpose (describing the business activities), and the annual accounts, which summarize the company’s economic and financial situation.

Key aspects to consider

The simple note is commonly used in business and financial transactions, such as purchasing company shares, applying for financing, or assessing the solvency of a potential partner or supplier. Its purpose is to offer a transparent and accurate overview of a company’s key aspects, helping to reduce risks in business operations.

This document is issued by the commercial register, a public institution responsible for maintaining the official record of companies in Spain. Anyone interested can request a simple note, although in some cases there may be specific restrictions or requirements, especially concerning access to confidential or sensitive information.
