Obtaining a registration certificate in the National Register of Companies (RNE) is now possible. Previously, only an extract of RNE registration and a notification from the one-stop shop for business formalities served as proof of your registration in the RNE.

If your company is registered with the RNE, you can obtain a registration certificate via data.inpi.fr or the Business Directory. The National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI) issues the registration certificate electronically, and only the INPI is authorized to issue this certificate. This certificate can be downloaded and printed on paper.
The RNE registration certificate allows you to prove your company's legal existence and confirm the information entered in the RNE. Notably, it is free to issue.
The RNE certificate is more important than the extract because it provides complete and legally recognized proof of the company's registration and details. It is issued by an official body (INPI) and includes all necessary information to confirm the company's legal status and authenticity. This makes it a crucial document for legal, financial, and official transactions where full verification of the company's details is required.
The registration certificate includes all the information entered in the RNE by the company. Additionally, it features:
- The company’s unique identification number (Siren number)
- The status of RNE registrations on the date of issue
- The Marianne of the INPI in watermark and the logo of the French Republic
These elements ensure the document's authenticity.
Unless proven otherwise, the certificate is considered authentic to the information contained therein and entered in the RNE at the time of its issue.
