<b>Registered Names.</b> Where an approved Registry specifically maintains a register for local entities that trade without formal incorporation, the Registry entry will present independent evidence of the name, as demanded by <a href="http://www.cacert.org/policy/OrganisationAssurancePolicy.php#5">OAP#5.d</a>. This may apply to organisations such as Sole Traders, Doing-Business-As traders (DBAs), Partnerships, Church and Religious groups, etc.

<li>
|

</p>
|
<strong>Registered Names</strong> may be used for Organisation Assurance where an Approved Registry allows them to be registered without formal incorporation (e.g. Sole Traders, Doing-Business-As (DBAs), Partnerships, Church and Religious groups, etc.)<br />
|
||||||
<p>
|
<i>Such entities have varying legal status and liabilities and may not be capable of legally becoming a Member of CAcert independently of the individuals within. The Organisation Assurer (OA) must then take care to identify the legal entity(s) seeking Organisation Assurance).</i>
|
||||||
Such entities have differing legal statuses with different liabilities. The named entity may not be capable of legally becoming a Member of CAcert, <i>independently and separately from the individuals within</i>. The Organisation Assurer (OA) must then take care to identify which individuals are Members, and which are therefore the natural legal entities behind the names.
|
</li>
|
||||||
</p>
|
<li>
|
||||||
<p>
|
<strong>Foreign Entities</strong> may be able or required to register with an Approved Registry but they must be registered where they are based; foreign registrations are not valid for Organisation Assurance.<br />
|
||||||
The general standard for assurance of an unincorporated entity with a Registered Name is that the result is equivalent to assurance of an individual Member, or Members, with the addition of the Registered Name.
|
<i>For example: companies are frequently incorporated in the United Kingdom, but operated primarily in another European country. These foreign entities may require to register locally and submit financial and/or yearly reports, extracts of home documents, reports from professionals such as accountants, etc, to authorities in the operating country.</i>
|
||||||
</p>
|
</li>
|
||||||
<p>
|
</ol>
|
||||||
There is no limit to the number of Registered Names that a Member may have.

|
||||||
<b>Foreign Entities.</b><br />
|
|
||||||
Where a local Registry requires foreign entities to register, this registration MAY NOT be used for Organisation Assurance.<br />

Example: companies are frequently incorporated in the United Kingdom, but operated primarily in another European country. These foreign entities may require to register locally and submit financial and/or yearly reports, extracts of home documents, reports from professionals such as accountants, etc, to authorities in the operating country.
