Within the Italian Business Register we can search for individuals who hold any of the following roles: director, auditor and/or shareholder.

Copies of Company Documents

Copies of the official filed documents can be obtained for you from the Registro delle Imprese and the Commerce Chambers, which are the holders of public companies registers in Italy.

The status of a company is shown on the Visura Storica certificate.
