Letter of Authority
In some situations, we need to determine authority for applicants acting on behalf of legal entities to apply for and/or manage renewals and transfers of Legal Entity Identifiers on their behalf. If this is needed, the RapidLEI system or a Registration Agent (RA) partner will require you to complete a Letter of Authorization / Authority (LoA). Please download the LoA appropriate for your scenario or contact us for assistance.
Current LEI holders can object to the transfer of LEIs to other LEI Issuers. If this is needed, the RapidLEI system or a Registration Agent (RA) partner will require you to complete a Transfer Objection.
Note all documents must be signed by individuals with signing authority to represent their organization.
