The Algerian Ministry of Commerce has announced an extension of the deadline for obtaining the electronic commerce registry (RCE) code. According to a recent communiqué, the deadline has been pushed back to July 31, 2019. This move aims to give more time to economic operators, both individuals and businesses, to modify their commerce registry and obtain the required electronic code.
The Ministry has urged operators who have not yet obtained the RCE code to visit local branches of the National Center for Commerce Registry (CNRC) to update their registry extracts promptly. This will enable them to avoid a last-minute rush and ensure compliance with the regulations. The Ministry had initially set the deadline for April 11, 2019, but has now extended it to accommodate those who require more time.
The introduction of the RCE code is part of the Ministry's efforts to modernize and improve the control of economic activities. According to Minister of Commerce, Saïd Djellab, the RCE code will enable the Ministry to better monitor and regulate the market, ensuring transparency and efficiency in control operations. The code will also help to prevent falsification of commerce registry documents.
The RCE code will replace the old models of commerce registry extracts with new ones featuring an electronic code. This move aims to enhance the security and authenticity of the registry documents. Additionally, the RCE code will provide updated information on the operator's status, whether an individual or a business.
The electronic commerce registry will facilitate the identification of the registry holder and enable the development and modernization of commercial activity control. The Ministry believes that this new system will improve the overall business environment in Algeria. Economic operators are encouraged to take advantage of this extension and regularize their commerce registry.
The Ministry of Commerce has emphasized the importance of this new system in ensuring a more efficient and transparent business environment. The RCE code will help to streamline commercial activities and improve the monitoring of economic operations. By extending the deadline, the Ministry aims to ensure that all economic operators have sufficient time to comply with the new regulations.
As the deadline approaches, economic operators are advised to expedite the process of obtaining the RCE code. The Ministry has expressed its commitment to supporting businesses and individuals in this transition. With the extended deadline, Algeria's business community can expect a more streamlined and efficient system for commerce registry and control.
