Overview

​
Identifiers

Collect two identifiers from each business customer in Slovakia and submit them as strings on the application body. Tax ID: 10-digit; legal entities begin with “20”. VAT number (IČ DPH) = “SK” + 10-digit DIČ (12 chars total). Registration number: 8-digit unique company number; appears on all OR extracts and invoices.

How documents combine

For each evidence area, this table shows whether the listed documents are alternatives (any one of) or a bundle (all required). The artifact-by-artifact lookup follows below.

​
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.

Collection notes

  • Legal Registration: Downloadable from orsr.sk; includes IČO, seat, entity type, statutory representatives, filing date.
  • Constitutive Documents: Notarised signatures required. a.s. founding deed must be notarial deed (notárska zápisnica).
  • Tax Registration: Issued by Finančná správa; collect both DIČ certificate and IČ DPH certificate if entity is VAT-registered.
  • Operating Permit: Issued by district živnostenský office; required for most commercial activities; searchable at zrsr.sk.
  • Sector-Specific License: NBS is sole sector regulator. Full CASP/crypto authorisation required from NBS since 2025-12-30 (MiCA transition elapsed).
  • Governance Records: OR extract lists all konateľ (s.r.o.), members of predstavenstvo (a.s.), and their term dates.
  • Signing Authority: Signatures on POA must match OR-registered representatives; notarisation required when acting for third-party filings.
  • 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: Slovakia does not issue a separate certificate of good standing; the Výpis z obchodného registra from orsr.sk serves all KYB purposes including incumbency. Request a dated extract (výpis), not an older copy.

​
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.

Notes

  • j.s.a. is not recognised in many legacy databases: Introduced 2017-01-01 (Act 389/2015); older screening databases may misclassify it or lack governance-structure data. Flag for manual review.
  • Notarial deed required for a.s. formation: The zakladateľská zmluva (founding deed) for an a.s. must be executed as a notárska zápisnica (notarial deed). An s.r.o. requires only certified signatures, not a full notarial deed.
  • OR extract is the single source of truth: Slovakia does not issue a separate certificate of good standing; the Výpis z obchodného registra from orsr.sk serves all KYB purposes, including incumbency. Request a dated extract (výpis), not an older copy.
