Step-by-step
- 1
Know which register holds the record
In Greece, company records sit on GEMI. Trade directories and aggregator sites are copies — the register is the source of truth.

Search by name or registration number
Use the exact identifier with its issuing register or jurisdiction. Name searches can return several candidates; a number is not a guarantee that the source is available or covers the record.
- 3
Read the register entry, not the marketing page
The register entry shows GEMI number, AFM (tax number), Company name, Legal form. That is what a bank, auditor or counterparty will check.

Keep a dated copy
Register entries change. Save the record with the date you retrieved it, or set up monitoring so you are told when the entry changes.
