What the PDF contains

A formation notice gives the publication date and details of the new company. These include its name, legal form, capital and RCCM number, with representation and activity details. It records the formation. Later changes need to be considered separately. [5]

Records in the company’s own GNI account

The formation guide describes a different route: after the application is processed, applicants receive SMS and email notification. Their FUE and generated corporate documents are then available in their own GNI account. [2]

Search language and document language

The search form has French and English labels. Linked notice PDFs are in French. If you need to submit the document in English, ask the recipient which translation they accept. [1] [5]

Formation charges are not research charges

Public search and linked notice PDFs are free. Company formation fees cover a different service. Ask the responsible registry for the price of an additional certified copy. [2] [1] [5]

Avoid common mistakes

  • A printed price for the Gazette issue is not a download fee. You can open the notice PDFs linked here free of charge. [5] [1]
  • The ANPI number in the search form and the RCCM number in the document are different identifiers. [1] [5]

Frequently asked questions

Can I obtain a PDF without an account?

Yes. “Voir” opens the notice as a PDF. These publications are free to access without an account. Use the relevant registry service for other company documents. [1] [5]

Does the announcement prove who currently manages the company?

It contains details of the published event. An incorporation announcement may omit later changes. Obtain current registry information and relevant amendments to establish the present position. [5]
