In Cyprus, certified copies or certificates for a business name can be requested online via the Registrar of Companies' e-filing system. Applicants must complete the relevant electronic form available on the Department of Registrar of Companies and Official Receiver website. The process requires providing the exact business name and registration number to ensure accurate retrieval. Payment of the prescribed fee is made electronically through the portal. Upon submission, certified documents are typically issued within a few working days and can be downloaded directly in PDF format. This service is available to company owners, authorized representatives, and third parties with appropriate authorization. The Registrar of Companies operates under the Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry, ensuring compliance with the Companies Law Cap. 113. Official fees and procedural details are updated regularly on the government website: https://www.mcit.gov.cy/mcit/drcor/drcor.nsf/index_en/index_en?OpenDocument.
