Applications for CES are only submitted electronically. In order to be issued these certificates, applicants should upload the following documents on the http://prevenire.gov.ro/ platform:

  • identification data
  • declaration of the legal representative (either signed with an electronic signature or by signing a holograph)

The issuance of the CES will be done automatically, electronically, after the system validates the request.

Worth noting is also the following:

  • CESs are valid without signature and stamp and their verification can be done through the same platform by series and number;
  • In the event of identifying any suspicions regarding obtaining the CES with the non-observance of the legal provisions or by not certifying the real situation of fact and law, the competent bodies are notified in order to establish the measures;
  • Within 5 days from the publication in the Official Monitor of this order, the Ministry of Economy, Energy and Business Environment will ensure the adaptation and functioning of the http://prevenire.gov.ro/ platform.
