Services Handbooks:
Registry certificate services for business companies
Chamber traditional functions refer to the Trade Register, and related activities/services.
The Chamber registers and certifies the activities representing business life in Rome and its Province, through the obligatory registration in Registers, Rolls, Rosters or Lists of the Chamber of all individual and corporate firms.
It is worth mentioning, among others: the craftsmen register; the traders register, manufacturers and importers of precious metals; the roll of olive groves, of virgin, extra-virgin and d.o.c. oil; the roll of vineyards intended for the production of d.o.c., d.o.c.g. and i.g.t. wines.
The Trade Register plays a basic role providing economic information and, in some cases, legal publicity, since the registration has the value of a declarative or constitutive deed - as is the case for Ltd and joint stock companies.
With the 1993 amendment act nr. 580, the Companies Register came under the exclusive jurisdiction of the chamber’s bodies, and it has also been expanded due to the inclusion of some special sections concerning categories, such as farming businesses, ordinary partnerships and artisan firms, thus becoming an essential tool in ensuring the transparency of the market.
Connected to the Registry is the
Financial-Administrative Inventory (R.E.A.) which collects all financial, statistical and administrative data concerning firms and associations carrying out business activities.
Besides these registry tools, there are registers, rolls, rosters and lists with a validating function: the roll of business agents; the roll of brokers; the register of mandatory commission agents and auctioneers; the roll of conductors of vehicles and boats to be used as non-regular public services; the shipbrokers roll; the list of ship’s agents; the registry of firms dealing with waste removal; the registry of capital promoters; the list of shipping agents, etc…
The Chamber plays a key role in overseas trade and the environment, too. In detail, besides keeping the register of firms dealing with waste, it deals with the Single Form for Environmental Declaration (Modello Unico di Dichiarazione Ambientale), with the circulation of Ecoaudit, with the Recyclable Waste Exchange, with the quality certification according to the ISO 14000 and Ecolabel rules.
The enterprise development
The Chemical-Product Laboratory
A dedicated
Chemical Laboratory came into being within the Rome Chamber with act nr.1767 of 13th of November 1940, thus establishing the laboratories of the Chambers of Commerce.
The Laboratory is responsible for carrying out technical checks and analyses – both chemical and physical, microbiological and sensorial, aimed at checking the products matching with all the requirements already fixed by laws and regulations, and also issuing specific conformity certificates.
The main Laboratory intervention sectors are the following:
agro-food, environment, industry and gold-silver.
In 1996 the Rome Chamber, as first public structure in Italy, obtained the National System of Laboratories Accrediting (SINAL), a real important and necessary requirement to carry out official tests regarding many exporting products.
