  • How to apply for a Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) using RAMP

    How to get an LEI Certificate

    An LEI Certificate is a downloadable, printable evidence of your status as a registered legal entity. It contains relevant information about your company and successful LEI registration status.

    The LEI Certificate allows you to provide a hard copy of your LEI in PDF format to your bank or financial institution.

    The benefits of being able to prove your identity globally, in a single document are immeasurable.

    Previously, this was done by providing your Certificate of Incorporation, or registry extract but this is not recognised in foreign countries – LEI Certificate is global.

    You can apply for your LEI Certificate here

  • What is automatic renewal?

    As LEIs require annual renewal, and renewing an LEI isd a vital component of any regulated financial transaction ensuring it does not expire is often critical. By selecting automatic annual renewal, the LEI renewal will be automatically triggered by our system 30 days prior to its renewal.

    The card details will be securely stored on Stripe and automatically deducted the annual renewal fee. You will receive notification reminders and invoices via email.

  • Should I choose a 1, 3 or 5 year LEI?

    In an effort to reduce the annual task of renewing an LEI, we have introduced the multi-year LEI concept to our services. This allows you to register an LEI for up to 5 years. In many cases, and entity may only require an LEI for one year. However, in the case of an entity with a longer lifespan it is advised to register your LEI for up to 5 years.

    Please note, the LEI renewal date will never show less than 1 year. This is because the LEI is required to be renewed every year. However, by choosing the 5 year, our system will trigger a renewal 60 days prior to the annual renewal date annually for the duration of the 5 years.
