How to renew your LEI code
The PRH issues LEI codes for 12 months at a time. To renew the validity of your code, you must
- Pay an annual fee when we send you an invoice.
- Update the LEI details that have changed.
We will inactivate your LEI code if you fail to pay the annual fee or to update your details by the deadline.
Pay the annual fee when we send you an invoice
We will send you an invoice for the following 12 months about 10 months after the issuance of your LEI code. Pay the annual fee by the due date to the PRH’s account given in the invoice, and we will renew the validity of the code.
We always send an invoice for the annual fee about two months before the next revision date of your LEI code. To see the revision date, access the details of your company using the Company and organisation search at ytj.fi.Avautuu uuteen välilehteen
