Registration of legal entities in the Employers' Register (e-EFKA)
As an essential prerequisite, the legal entity must be registered with GEMI.
This is a procedure for registration of legal entities in the EFKA Employers Register and the assignment of Employer Registration Numbers (ERNs). It is an automated procedure, conducted through use of a functional interface of the public-sector information systems, with no need to submit an application, and is performed as soon as a legal entity is registered with the General Commercial Register (GEMI) and assigned a tax identification number. It is addressed to legal entities.

In the case of unsuccessful completion of the online registration process, registration may exceptionally be performed by the competent regional service of e-EFKA.
The law stipulates that all certificates and certifications of any kind issued by e-EFKA as per the provisions regulating citizen transactions are issued in electronic form, by means of an interface connected directly with the information systems of the organisations with which these documents are submitted.
The JMD stipulates that, once all establishment formalities are thoroughly completed and the entity is assigned a GEMI number and a TIN, the One-Stop Shop notifies e-EFKA electronically accordingly.
A general document from e-EFKA that analyses the new electronic service, its scope, and describes the implementation flow.
Once the establishment of a legal entity in the ‘One-Stop Shop’ is completed, this is notified to e-EFKA electronically.
The data of the legal entity concerned is obtained.
A review is conducted of the Employers’ Register to identify any past registrations.
If a newly established legal entity is identified, there follows the registration process.
Once the registration process is completed, the entity is assigned an Employer Registration Number (ERN).
Once the process is completed, the members of the entity concerned are notified through GEMI of the unique ERN assigned as above.
