Frequently asked questions about our LEI transfer service

What does it mean to transfer an LEI?

Transferring an LEI means moving the management of your existing LEI from your current provider to LEI Now. The LEI itself remains the same, but LEI Now becomes the service provider responsible for managing it.

Will my LEI code change after the transfer?

No, your LEI code stays exactly the same after the transfer. Only the provider managing the LEI changes.

Why should I transfer my LEI to LEI Now?

Transferring your LEI to LEI Now can make LEI management simpler and more convenient. It helps reduce administrative effort and gives you a single provider for renewals and ongoing support.

Is the LEI transfer free of charge?

Yes, transferring an active LEI to LEI Now is free of charge.

How long does the LEI transfer take?

Transfer times can vary depending on the current provider and the verification requirements. Usually, the process is completed as quickly as possible once all required information has been provided.

Can I transfer multiple LEIs at the same time?

Yes. If your organisation manages several LEIs, multiple transfers can be arranged together.

Can LEI Now also handle renewals after the transfer?

Yes. Once your LEI has been transferred, LEI Now can continue to manage renewals and ongoing LEI administration. With our auto-renewal service, we ensure that your LEI remains active and valid for trading at all times.

Will there be any interruption to my LEI status during the transfer?
