The artifact-by-artifact lookup follows below. | Evidence area | Documents needed | | ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Legal Registration | Izvod od Trgovskiot Registar | | Constitutive Documents | *Any one of:* Osnivački akt · Statut | | Tax Registration | Potvrda za EDB | | Operating Permit | Komunalna/opštinska dozvola | | Ownership Records | Izvod od CRRNM | | Governance Records | Izvod od CRRNM | | Signing Authority | *Any one of:* Одлука · Нотарски заверено полномошно | | Address | *Any one of:* Договор за закуп · Сметка за комунални услуги · Банковски извод | | Good Standing | Izvod od Trgovskiot Registar | ## Documents to collect The physical documents you'll collect from your customer, with the evidence area each one proves. One document can prove multiple areas — for example, Brazil's Cartão CNPJ covers both tax and business-registration proof, so it appears once with both areas listed. | Document | Proves | | -------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Izvod od Trgovskiot Registar** | Legal Registration, Ownership Records, Governance Records, Good Standing | | **Osnivački akt (DOO/DOOEL)** | Constitutive Documents | | **Statut (AD)** | Constitutive Documents | | **Potvrda za EDB** | Tax Registration | | **Komunalna/opštinska dozvola (municipal permit)** | Operating Permit | | **Одлука на одбор / собрание (board/assembly resolution)** | Signing Authority | | **Нотарски заверено полномошно (notarised power of attorney)** | Signing Authority | | **Договор за закуп** | Address | | **Сметка за комунални услуги (≤90 дена)** | Address | | **Банковски извод (≤90 дена)** | Address | | **Sector-Specific License** | Licence from NBRSM, Лиценца КХВ (Securities and Exchange Commission MK), Лиценца АСО (Insurance Supervision Agency MK), Лиценца МАПАС (pension fund supervision) | ### Collection notes * **Legal Registration:** Official extract from CRRNM; includes EMBS, EDB, entity type, registered address, founders, management. Searchable free of charge at crm.com.mk. * **Constitutive Documents:** Notarised constitutive document filed with CRRNM at incorporation; single document for DOO; DOOEL uses a unilateral declaration (izjava). * **Tax Registration:** Issued by UJP; confirms 13-digit EDB. For VAT payers, UJP also issues a VAT certificate showing the "MK" + EDB format. * **Operating Permit:** Issued by the relevant local municipality (opština); required for general trading at the registered address; scope varies by municipality. * **Sector-Specific License:** NBRSM for banks and payment institutions; SEC/KHoV for investment firms and funds; ISA/ASO for insurance; MAPAS for pension companies. * **Ownership Records:** Shareholder / member list for DOO and AD entities appears in the CRRNM Izvod extract. * **Governance Records:** Lists current managers (upravitel) for DOO or board members for AD; updated via change-of-data filing at CRRNM. * **Signing Authority:** Notarisation required for PoAs granting broad signing authority; manager authority derives from appointment recorded in CRRNM Izvod. * **Address:** Conduit universal policy: lease (no time bound) OR utility bill OR bank statement, with utility/bank dated within 90 days. Same evidence satisfies both registered-address and operating-address checks. * **Good Standing:** No standalone good-standing certificate is issued; a recently dated copy of the listed document evidences current standing. CRRNM does not issue a separate certificate of good standing; a dated Izvod extract (≤30 days) is the practitioner-standard live-status document and is captured under business\_registration. ## Person roles When you submit a person on the application body, set their `role` to one of Conduit's canonical `BusinessPersonRole` values. Use this table to map a local corporate-governance title onto the right canonical role. | Local role | Canonical API role | Description | | --------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Upravitel (DOO manager) | `CONTROLLING_PERSON` | Appointed managing director of a DOO; day-to-day operational authority; registered with CRRNM. | | Izvršen direktor (AD executive director) | `CONTROLLING_PERSON` | Executive director of an AD; operational management role. | | Член na Odbor na Direktori (AD board member) | `CONTROLLING_PERSON` | Member of the AD's board of directors; governance/oversight role. | | Член na Nadzoren Odbor (AD supervisory board) | `CONTROLLING_PERSON` | Supervisory board member (two-tier AD structure); oversight only. | | Zakonski zastapnik / Polnomošnik | `LEGAL_REPRESENTATIVE` | Person legally authorised to bind the company; may be the manager or a PoA holder registered with CRRNM. | ## Notes * EMBS ≠ EDB. The 7-digit EMBS (registration number, issued by CRRNM) and the 13-digit EDB (tax ID, issued by UJP) are distinct identifiers. Both should be collected; map EMBS to businessInfo.businessEntityId and EDB to businessInfo.taxId. * AD minimum capital is EUR-denominated. Minimum is EUR 25,000 (simultaneous establishment, no public offer) or EUR 50,000 (successive, with public offer), each in MKD counter-value per NBRM middle rate on the day prior to statute adoption. * EU candidate, not EU member — AMLR/AMLD6 not directly applicable. AML obligations derive from domestic law (OG 151/2022, latest amendments OG 208/2024, eff. 2024-10-17); the EU AMLR (2024/1624, eff. 2027-07-10) will not bind North Macedonia until accession.
