When you need a legalised trade or commercial licence in Cyprus
Licences prove that your business is allowed to manufacture or trade a product: municipal trade licences, factory licences, drug manufacturing licences, FSSAI licences and similar permits. Trade, factory, manufacturing, drug and FSSAI licences are issued by municipal, state or central authorities depending on the activity.
European partners sometimes ask for apostilled licences and registrations as part of supplier due diligence.
Companies dealing with Cyprus are most often asked for a legalised trade or commercial licence during product registration by regulators, as well as for plant or supplier approval and tenders.
A trade or commercial licence issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Cyprus accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
