BRIS Now Live on the European e-Justice Portal
European Commission, 2017
The European Commission is happy to announce that from 8 June 2017 business registers in European countries are interconnected, ensuring the availability of information on companies registered in any EU Member State and EEA country.
The Business Registers Interconnection System (BRIS) is part of the European eJustice Portal, the one-stop-shop for citizens, businesses and legal professionals across Europe.
The BRIS infrastructure is a joint effort by EU governments and the European Commission. It facilitates public access to information on European companies and ensures that all European business registers can communicate with each other electronically in a safe and secure way.
The system includes a European Central Platform interconnecting the EU business registers in order to facilitate cross-border public legal information on companies operating within the EU (see Directive 2012/17EU). The ultimate aim is to enhance confidence in the Single Market through transparency and up-to-date information and reduce unnecessary burdens on companies.
BRIS is a successful reuse case of CEF eDelivery components used for system integration allowing the full integration between back-offices with different technologies. This integration shows the high flexibility of CEF eDelivery components and at the same time secures the separation of responsibilities in a complex environment with multiple partners.
