Cross Border Transfer of Registered Office of Company Directive
No formal proposal for a Directive on cross-border transfer of registered office has been made by the Commission. The possible need, scope and contents of such a Directive form part of the Commission’s consultation on the EU Company Law Action Plan referred to above. The Directive, if brought forward, would provide a legal framework for companies registered in the EU to transfer their registered office from one Member States to another.
A copy of the DTI consultation document including an outline of the Commission proposals, the summary of consultees’ responses and the Government response (URN 05/544 & 05/1615) can all be viewed by clicking on the REPORTS and PUBLICATIONS link at the top right hand corner of this page.
