Over 4700 new businesses opened in 3 months - 11,464 online applications at the Central Business District in September alone
1,483 new businesses opened throughout the country in September alone, following the trend of the two peak months of the tourist season.
Official data from the National Business Center shows that during the three months of July-September, a total of 4,785 newly opened entities were created.
On the other hand, according to available data, 11,464 online applications were registered, a figure that shows high interest and commitment from entrepreneurs regarding business matters. The applications include a wide range of services such as applications for initial registrations, changes, suspensions, activations, deregistrations.
The National Business Center operates three registries, each with specific criteria and procedures. The Commercial Registry has registered 9,659 applications; the Beneficial Owners Registry 841 applications and the Permits and Licenses Registry 961 applications.
The Registry of Permits and Authorizations has recorded 149 licenses issued in September and 28 permits, an increase compared to August.
CBK data shows a continuing trend of digitalization and facilitation of procedures for businesses in Albania.
As part of the digitalization reform, businesses perform all necessary services they receive from the National Business Center, online through the e-albania portal, reducing time, procedures, and waiting lines for citizens.
Also, through legal changes undertaken last year, a number of application fees previously paid by businesses have been eliminated, such as the fee for making an application for name reservation, and the method of issuing a certificate for this purpose has been regulated. The fee for transferring a name to third parties has also been removed, as well as the fee for making an application for correction of errors.
Meanwhile, after the launch of the new official website of the National Business Center, during September, new functionalities were added that make interaction with citizens and businesses faster and more practical.
