EU Inc (the 28th regime) · 2026/0074(COD)
Supports a digital and business-friendly EU Inc. but wants stronger preventive controls and safeguards to ensure legal certainty and reliability throughout the company lifecycle.
Ensure the EU Inc. framework includes preventive control mechanisms such as notarial or judicial verification to maintain legal certainty and reduce future costs and disputes.
“If preventive safeguards are weakened, as it happens in the proposal, which departs from the EU Company Law ‘acquis’ in this regard by reducing such preventive control, costs may not disappear; they may simply be shifted to other market participants, public authorities, creditors, consumers or society as a whole.”

Design the EU central interface to interoperate with national digital one-stop platforms like Spain's CIRCE to avoid duplication, reduce costs, and preserve safeguards.
“The EU Inc. framework should therefore build on proven national digital systems rather than bypass them. The EU central interface should be designed to interoperate with national single-interface systems, avoiding parallel structures that may duplicate procedures, increase costs or weaken safeguards.”

Preserve national safeguards on company seat and related controls to ensure legal certainty and prevent abuse, especially regarding cross-border elements.
“In any event, the Regulation should expressly preserve the safeguards available under national law where they are necessary to ensure legal certainty, protect third parties and prevent abuse.”

Carefully assess the legal basis and scope of the proposal given its wide impact, and ensure alignment with existing EU company law directives and preventive control standards.
“The proposal also raises questions as regards its legal basis and scope. It is based on Article 114 TFEU... Given its potential impact on national company law, tax administration, social security, AML/CFT systems, labour law and preventive justice, the legal basis and the scope of the proposal should be carefully assessed.”

Allow Member States to maintain preventive controls in liquidation and simplified closure procedures to protect creditors, employees, tax and AML/CFT authorities.
“Fast-track liquidation and simplified closure procedures should be designed with adequate safeguards... Member States should be able to provide appropriate preventive control in liquidation procedures where necessary to protect third parties and prevent abuse.”
