In France, a trade and companies register (RCS) in 2024 is by definition a database which contains all the information concerning traders and companies active on French territory, with French Overseas (Dom-TOM) included whether they are legal or natural persons.

In France, the trade and companies Register (RCS) aims to centralize all the legal information of companies operating in the country in a single register and to communicate their existence to the public and if a company is not registered in the trade and companies register is that it does not legally exist.

In France, the register of companies conditions the rights of registered French and foreign companies and regulates their professional activity by recognizing their existence because any company carrying out a commercial activity must register either with a Chamber of Commerce and Industry or with the Register of Commerce and Commercial Court.

In France, the trade and companies register (RCS) in 2024 is essentially managed by Infogreffe that holds information concerning companies registered in the Trade and Companies Register with the Commercial Courts, so that one can search there for a company if one knows the name of the company or its SIREN number (its identification number).

In France, the Trade and Companies Register (RCS) makes the following information available to the public:

  • A summary sheet which includes the address of the company's registered office, the commercial court with which the company is registered, the legal form of the company, the date of the first registration of the company and its registration number registration.
  • A summary of the main activities of the company as well as official documents that have been filed for the company (against payment of a fee).
  • The turnover of the company, the balance sheet and the result (P&L), the staff as well as the annual financial reports.
  • An alarm by email in order to be automatically alerted when an event occurs (publication of annual accounts, the opening of collective proceedings or a modification of registration in the Trade and Companies Register).

The KBIS consists of an extract from the trade and companies register, which acts as a company's “identity card” and contains all the information that the company is required to declare.

The KBIS extract is in fact a certificate of registration in the commercial register which is an official document issued by the French register of companies contains:

  • The legal data of the company (name, legal form, etc.)
  • Company number.
  • Registered legal address.
  • Date of incorporation.
  • Status (active, inactive or deregistered).
  • Commercial activities.
  • Directors and shareholders.
  • Commercial activities.

The BODACC is the official bulletin for the publication of deeds entered in the Trade and Companies Register, from the incorporation of a company to its deregistration, particularly in terms of assignments and transfers, insolvency proceedings and the filing of accounts.
