Commercial registration certificate

Depending on the type of securities you will need to provide:

Certified copy of the minutes containing the decision to approve the issuance, if applicable;
Informative Note
Prospectus
Term sheet

Securities Control

For securities registered in the Centralised Systems, Euronext Securities Porto ensures that the amount recorded in the Issue Control Account always corresponds to the total sum of the amounts/units recorded in the securities accounts of Financial Intermediary Participants managed by Euronext Securities Porto.

Cancellation / Withdrawal of Securities

The issuer of securities registered with Euronext Securities Porto may request the cancellation of a securities issue, provided that the securities are not admitted to trading on a regulated market. For book-entry securities, cancellation can only be effected by transferring the securities to another registry system.
In such cases, the cancellation must be coordinated with the corresponding operation in the new registry system chosen by the issuer. Euronext Securities Porto may undertake certain procedures to regularise the necessary records in the future registry system.

The cancellation of the registration is done by debiting the securities from the financial intermediaries’ accounts. For securities in certificate form, the process involves the delivery of the respective certificates.
