Guidance

Every company, registered in the Registrar of Companies, must pay an annual fee of three hundred and fifty euros (€350) by 30th of June of each year of its operation.

It is noted that, if a company fails to timely pay the annual fee it is subject to a late charge as follows:

• for payment within two (2) months from the 30^th of June (i.e. up until 31st August), the charge imposed equals to an additional ten percent (10%) on the original fee, thus making the total amount to be paid three hundred and eighty-five euros (€385);
• for payment within five (5) months from the 30^th June (i.e. up until 30th November), the charge imposed equals to an additional 30% on the original fee, thus making the total amount to be paid four hundred and ninety euros (€490).

Companies belonging to a group, for which the total payable fees do not exceed the sum of twenty thousand euros (€20.000), complete and submit the application for the payment of annual fee by allocating the sum amongst the companies in equal parts.
