What information is needed to register an LEI?

The RapidLEI platform has been created following PbD (Privacy by Design) principles, meeting the needs of Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulation . Where possible we have minimized the level of input needed to apply for and LEI. We use multiple data sources to be able to make the experience positive and above all “Rapid”.

Initially, you’ll be required to set up an account, and for that, you’ll need a valid working email account. We’ll take your first and last name from a courtesy perspective for our communications to you, but apart from that we’ll try to complete as much of the heavy lifting as possible with public data. We present options to you to verify data rather than asking you to provide data. This helps with the overall accuracy or the request.

In order to correctly construct a FULLY_CORROBORATED Level 1 record you’ll need to be able to verify that the details we present to you are correct, such as company name, company number, legal/headquarters address. If applicable and you are part of an organization/group of related companies, you’ll have to present some evidence of ownership. It’s what we call Level 2 data. If you don’t have any parent entity details or are unable/not allowed to supply this data then this part of the process is rapid too.
